	Champ Car - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		CART was founded in November 1978 by Roger Penske, Pat Patrick, Dan Gurney, and several other team owners who had been participating in USAC events involving cars known as Champ Cars and IndyCars.
		This, combined with CART's move to include more road racing on the schedule, led to a split of the series after the 1995 season due to a dispute between egos at CART and Tony George, owner of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
		The only major mistake that CART made early on seemed to be its attempt to create a rival showcase event, the U.S., at Michigan International Speedway on the same day as the Indy 500.

		The guys driving CART cars are flying around the track at up to 240 mph (384 kph.) At the same time, drivers are trying pass one another while making sharp turns without slamming into the side of the wall.
		Some of the races are run on oval road courses while others wind through tight curves on temporary tracks set up in the middle of a city.
		One of the big challenges for CART racers is adapting their driving styles to the many different courses.

		A first peak at what to expect from the next generation CART racing simulator is available at the Microsoft website.
		When hitting that website, don't be shocked when Bob Vasha tells you that the sim is pushing the limits of "racing reality" - a pretty big claim, but I guess in marketing the minor detail to differentiate the terminology as to where limits are being pushed falls by the wayside.
		I always thought racing simulators are virtual, and can at best push limits of "realism" - of which there is plenty to be found in the new sim.

	Book Review: "A Winning Adventure — Honda's Decade in CART Racing"
		They began their open wheel racing program in 1993 and ended it in 2002 at the close of the Champ Car season; in the meantime American Honda Motor Co. and Honda Performance Development left an indelible mark of conquest on the CART racing landscape.
		The tome, executed in faultless fashion by veteran CART journalists Gordon Kirby and John Oreovicz delineates the early difficulties — and later great triumphs — of Honda's 10-year history in the CART open wheel series.
		With ready access to all of the principals behind Honda's decision to enter (and later leave) CART racing and with their intrinsic, deep knowledge of what happened behind the scenes, Kirby and Oreovicz's seamless inside look into the machinations involved is as compelling as a novel and is just as difficult to put down.

		Although the graphics are good, the sound is extremely poor--the music isn't suited for CART and there's a noticeable lack of variety in sound effects.
		While the game features 15 real-life CART racers and seven actual tracks, the racers behave nothing like their namesakes, and the fictional tracks are uninspired.
