I thought so too. RHR has really come along nicely and with more road courses coming ahead RHR has a good chance to prove even more his true skills. Not to discredit his oval ability which has been on on the rise - he does have 4 top 10's on the ovals plus 6th at Indy.

As I watched the race, it was first time in a LONG time that I felt like it was the CART of old that I use to love going to see in person at Mid-Ohio.

I also agree with this. I felt this when Rahal won at St.Pete but then again this past weekend. The main reason I think was because the car count and Americans winning again. 3 different Americans winning in one season of American open wheel, when was the last time that happened? Plus it also proof of a strong core of young drivers coming up which is good for any struggling motorsport planning for the future.

Plus Mid-Ohio is still coming up. I bet you can still buy tickets focaljet-1.
