I was pleasantly surprised to see Brian Hilderbrand's article on the great crowds for the IRL races at Texas ("Texas toasts IRL," Oct. 19). It's nice to see that some members of the media are fairly addressing the IRL as the fledgling series that it is rather than just banging the one-note (CART) reunification drum.

There has been so much spin and misinformation put out by many members of the media. It's so refreshing to see a member of the media actually addressing the issue without a bias. There are others scattered around the country (but) I feel fortunate that Brian Hilderbrand is here in this market.

Thanks for the good work in the past and keep it up.
