Rock500 & German Race on TV Only

STRONG from AR1

UPDATE As we now understand it, these TV deals are only for England and
Germany to be shown live, with all other races shown on the 1-hour
highlights show.  This of course is a major gaffe by CART and, based on the
fan e-mail we are receiving, is not sitting well with CART’s large
international fan base. If they don’t fix this problem, and fix it fast, it
will rank right up there with their top 3 blunders of all time.

Ahh Bollox, this is getting worse :o (

    No offense to you , sir, but:

    BWAAAAAAAAAAAA-HAAAAAAAAAAAA-HAAAAAAAAAAAAAA !

    Hey, Mr. Zeppelin !

    Zeppy !

    Where are you at now, Mr. Gas Bag.

    First you announce that all CART races will be shown LIVE in Europe,
    and then you state that Penske is kicking himself, etc.

    BWAAAAAAAAAAA-HAAAAAAAAAAAAA-HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA !

    You are making a complete fool of yourself by the moment.

    Seems even your hero is beginning to get a bit upset with CART!

    I think it is far more likely that this is a major gaffe by AR1, who
    obviously heard about the Britain/Germany race deal, and came to the wrong
    conclusion.

    Indeed, but they’re RUMORS, right? Rumors are *NOT* fact.

    Not just a rumor, but somewhere between fact and rumor. He was reporting it
    as just an unconfirmed fact. Apparently, he had a bad source.

    With "indeed" I was agreeing with the fact that MarkC had made an
    error or had a bad source. But for the rest, no need to party before
    it’s all written in stone.
