Although tensions between CART and the IRL have cooled somewhat, the biggest complaint about the IRL cars (and one of the biggest reasons why Indy racing splintered into 2 groups) is because IRL used piece of shit cars/engines. For a while, they were only using Oldsmobile Aurora or Infiniti engines...and during that first year of the IRL, there were so many probs. I haven't followed the IRL much (as I dig NASCAR more), so hopefully things have gotten better.

And for the record, Indy itself is left turns only.
