Open-Wheel Racing Case Study

The history of open-wheel racing in the United States is a story of incredible success and terrible failure. The story can be seen to have started in 1978 with the formation of the Championship Auto Racing Team or CART. The league was founded by several racing teams who were dissatisfied with the way open-wheel racing was being handled. CART experienced tremendous success for a number of years and represented the most popular form of motor sports in the United States. The wheels on the success of CART racing began to come off when Anton “Tony” George, the president of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway began to express concerns with how CART was operating. George complained that the CART league held too many races in foreign countries. He also expressed concern that CART was focusing on road races instead of oval tracks. He also felt that CART focused on too heavily on promoting foreign drivers. As a result of his dissatisfaction with CART, George began the Indy

There are various race car classes that range from Hornets which are considered the least expensive all the way up to the Modified, which is the most expensive class of race car to run on the race track. I personally identify myself to be included in such a community due to the fact that ever since I was the age of four, my father took up the sport of racing Modified’s every weekend from March to October, and this is ultimately how I was introduced to the race track family (community). At the age of six my brother was very intrigued by the sport of racing and convinced my father to allow him to follow in his footsteps, and also pursue the love and dedication for the sport.
