There's a fight brewing over the proposed ChampCar race in Phoenix, Arizona.
ChampCar says that NASCAR is trying to sabotage the event. But NASCAR says it doesn't have a clue what Kalkhoven and company are talking about.
Robin Miller fills in the details on SPEED.

Apparently, the Grand Am cars aren't in action at Watkins Glen at the moment, because everyone is in court fighting about tobacco advertising laws and their interpretation.
Krohn Racing doesn't like that its teenage driver isn't allowed to participate in the Grand-Am event because the Penske IRL team has Marlboro backing. Grand-Am & IRL are both in action this weekend at The Glen.
From CRASH.NET
"Krohn's legal team feels that this Tobacco Agreement is a contractual agreement rather than a statutory agreement. Krohn feels that contract provisions can be waived. He feels the provisos, which kept Braun [Krohn's driver] from racing, have been misinterpreted. Braun isn't an IRL driver - he's a Grand-Am driver who just happens to be racing on the same weekend at the same track."
