That is amazing IMO, I am surprised this has been around since 2005 and I have only found out about it today....

What do you guys think about this? Does anyone follow this regularly here?

I just love the concept, a world cup for motor sport...pretty neat

I catch it on Speed every so often. Doesn't seem to be any consistency to when races are shown though.

The cars are decent. They have a Champ Car-esque push to pass button that doesn't seem to net much overtaking in my experience. Sadly the US team rarely runs in the top 10 so that may spoil it for some. IMO the best part about the series is the liveries are what you'd expect them to be. The Dutch drive bright orange, NZ sports their "all black" and so on. I'm fairly certain Speed has aired both seasons, though many races show out of season as is typical of anything not NASCAR.

^Yes the liveries are awesome. See I am originally Lebanese, and as if the idea of realizing that a "Motorsports World Cup" had been in the works for a while wasn't exciting enough, I discovered upon visiting the site that Lebanon has a team in it! I love that huge cedar on the side it's awesome!
