Did you guys read about the CART Racing in Texas.Any way the high bank there at Texas Motor Speedway is at 24 degrees which has meant the cars can run at as high speeds as 381 kph and the G Force is so bad the drivers are taking over 5 Gs and going dizzy and possibility of passing out. Wow that is hard out racing.They can go full throttle round the corner. Race was postponed.

Can't say I have every taken much interest in Cart other then the Queensland round. What is it like to watch? better then F1?

Normally better to watch on the odd occasion that I catch a race.
But there aint no Ferrari in CART :(

I will now too seeing as I got myself a TV, was quite looked down upon to be watching racing on the dorm TV :fmad: :fmad: :fmad: :fmad: :fmad: :fmad: :fmad:
Although being in Bathurst that is quite strange really :WH: :confused:

Iv'e only managed to catch bits of it but the G Force prob caught my eye. I hear that Kiwi Scott Dixon is doin pretty good.
