Not that name! It needs to be US focused.

IndyCar Championship


It does exactly what it says on the tin!

Yeah, keep the dream alive rush. There won't be an IRL/Indycar series soon.

Championship Auto Racing Series (CARS)

Championship Indy Racing Series (CIRS)

Formula Extreme (I know its taken)

Formula Top Gun (FTG) - It's a joke, serious.

International Indy Championship

In the end, the name isn't as important as the marketing, and the merger itself.

How about the "We're Not NASCAR...We're Open-Wheel" Series???

or the "Remember US" Series (note the pun there)

and finally, the

"Can You Pronounce the Drivers' Names" Series....

Seriously...It'll have the word "Indy" in it somewhere....

Why? Indianapolis is only one race that meansNOTHING (WOULD HAVE BEEN A BETTER WORD TO USE HERE) in the grand scheme of things.

I think it should show what it was and where it will go.

Hmm... The (sponsor here) Indycar World Series. And I think the champion should get the Vanderbuilt Cup as it's a historic US open wheel trophy. And as for "Indy is only one race and doesn't mean that much" I disagree. But the Champcars are still called Indycars everywhere but the US. And the Indy 500 is the biggest race in the series. Champcar is a name they brought back when they couldn't use Indycar anymore and people still called them CART cars anyway.

As for what the sanctioning body should be called... that's a whole nother kettle of fish.

If they ever did unify i say forget both pasts and start a brand new series with no major influence from one particular series. thats why i think a good name would be OPEN WHEEL WORLD SERIES thats so both fans could live with it. that at least what i think

Champ Car should be included in the name somehow. It's been around since the AAA days.

Gee there has been way to many names for it all really hasnt there.

I like Indycar and Champcar , they both have a great ring to them , I also liked CART world series.

I honestly cant think of a "brand new" name for the series but something that incorporates what the series is all about and creates a stir and passion in the fans is fine by me

How about the Indy Champ Car Series? Hopefully that'll reconcile both sides.
