The article, if it had a neutral point of view, would have mentions of not only what is good about ISC but also what has been not so good. Like the attempts to cancel the planned street course events in Miami (in 2002) and Phoenix (2007). Rather than accept that the racing business is a competition (not a monopoly), they claimed that their profits would be threatened by these events (welcome to business) and hired lawyers to persuade the city officials and governors to deny CART permission to host these events. They also tried to sell bogus lies about the Champ Car World Series (calling it a "minor league") and street course racing (saying the the "hokey" race will "surely fail", and that they are "not successful"). Articles about both of these issues still exist on autoracing1.com, under the Champ Car category.

The article is actually misleading because it does not mention any of ISC's flaws. I have yet to encounter a Wikipedia article about any business that does NOT mention their criticisms, enviromnental record, and other related topics. 97.125.93.108 (talk) 23:09, 28 January 2010 (UTC)

Did you miss the parts where all their tracks don't get built because everyone hates them and they get sued all the time? Recury (talk) 02:03, 29 January 2010 (UTC)
