		<description><![CDATA[I don&#8217;t expect anyone to notify me of every little IndyCar change, but come on.

Luckily Jeff at &#8220;My Name Is IRL&#8221; is on top of things, and posted news of his departure. So with Dario gone, what&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<title>Gene Simmons Presents: 2008 IndyCar Season In Review</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have been singing Gene&#8217;s praises for years now. The man is a marketing genius. He used our beloved &#8220;I Am Indy&#8221; theme song to prove that repetition does make the heart grow fonder. And now, he is ready to put the lid on another fine season. You may ask, how is he going to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[F1: Explain The Chicane: Leeeeeewwwwiiiissss (the reference will make sense later&#8230; maybe..). So I am just waiting for Void to call me and laugh at the misfortune of the man I voted most likely to carry another man&#8217;s child in &#8217;07. You see&#8230; he loves Fernando Alonso. He will not admit to this&#8230; but I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Toro Rosso: Welcome To the Wall Of Hate</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Sebastien Bourdais seems to be getting a bit of press these days, and most of it is bad. Up until now he seemed to be his own worst critic. But today he struck back, perhaps providing some explanation to why he has not been performing as well as his teammate. &#8220;I am convinced I am [...]]]></description>

		<title>Italian GP mini-preview</title>
		<description><![CDATA[After a hectic qualifying it looks like we&#8217;ve got a grid for a great race tomorrow at Monza. With two STRs up front it looks as if Kovalainen should get an early lead with Vettel and Webber giving chase. In the dry he should take Vettel with ease early on. Not sure if Bourdais will [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Warning To Sports Car Racing Fans</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As you may have noticed, Indy-fever has afflicted my fellow blogger, Mark. Bigtime. It&#8217;s not even May Day (which, as a socialist, I am duty bound to celebrate &#8211; so don&#8217;t expect any posts from me tomorrow) and he is already hyping the bajeezus out of that little Memorial Day get together at the brickyard.
