Fellow fans and supporters of the Champ Car World Series,

The IRL has no business racing on the streets of Long Beach. They are an "oval" based series who are on the brink of extinction and are resorting to "stealing" the marquee event of the Champ Car World Series. As fans of the CCWS, we cannot accept this underhanded play by IRL founder, Tony George and his series organization.

We must make our collective voices heard through this petition and let the event organizers at Dover Motorsports know that we will not accept the IRL (or any series for that matter) replace the Champ Cars ar Long Beach.

Please take this moment to sign this petition and let Jim Michaelian, president and general manager of Dover Motorsports (and the rest of those involved in the decision making process) know that we want Champ Cars back at Long Beach! Mr. Michaelian has been part of the Grand Prix Association of Long Beach since it's inception and knows how devoted we are as Champ Car fans. Let's make him keenly aware that we will speak with our wallets and TV sets if the IRL is chosen to replace the only true American Open Wheel series.

Help us keep Champ Cars at Long Beach... sign our petition!

    • Tony George has done very serious, and possibly irrepairable damage to open wheel racing in the USA. Everything he said was important when he began his IRL has been totally compormised in despartion to keep his failed racing series alive. The ratings and attendance at IRL races continue to go down no matter what he does. Don't let Tony George destroy the LBGP. Many fans will be alienated if the LBGP goes to the IRL, and will likely die out. Don't let this destruction happen.

    • Please be true to your words and consider the equity that Champ Car (CART) has built over the years.

    • As a long-time Champ Car fan and Southern California native I wish that the Long Beach GP continue with Champ Car and not go to the rival IRL. Many people I know, will stop attending if the IRL should replace CCWS.

    • I support, to the fullest of my capacity, the Champ Car world series. I do not spend my money on any IRL events or merchandise, including the Indy 500. I also do not watch IRL events on TV.

    • The IRL has no business in Long Beach, or any other street course for that matter. Tony George is an embarrasment to the racing establishment.
