What is CART? What is IRL?

BTW, I know what NASCAR is. There's a point there (be it good, bad, or otherwise).

Only if you consider Indy Car style open wheel racing the only form of OW in America. There are plenty of sprint car style series still going strong. And quite frankly, they put on a better show and better racing than CART or the IRL ever did. From Quarter Midget racing to the WoO style cars, they put on a wail of show rather it be on asphalt, concrete, or dirt.
