Open wheel got bickering and Nascar grabbed the spotlight. I'm not sure Nascar is going to let go. It is going to take a few years of IndyCar to run a circuit with full, competitive fields before people are even going to give them a chance. Even then, I expect the main interest will be from cities where the race is held and the Indy 500.
I think they have crippled open wheel racing in North America for the foreseeable future.
