CART, like any business, is interested in any place that it can be viable
and make a buck,…

I thought CART was dead
Or maybe I’m reading too many posts from Tom Wesdorp (who makes
Hooter/Defender almost enjoyable)

They may be wise using CART to promot e Bridgestone, trying to increase
awareness of the brand in North America, and still sell the company’s

I think it’s a pretty minor deal actually… Some people are gonna read a
lot into this, and means very very little…
