I attended the CART race at the Rockingham Motor Speedway recently and I must say, those champ cars are sensational! Not only are they the loudest form of motorsport I’ve ever attended (although apparently Santa Pod drag cars are louder), they travel at stupendous speeds.
The set up at Rockingham made for a couple of disappointments, though, with the leaderboard tower not working and the PA drowned out after the cars got going (although I’m not sure they could have done much about that), not to mention the short race due to the weeping track.
However, I’m sure they’ll sort out everything by the time the CART series arrives here next year – I’ll definately be going!
