Welcome to 3-Wide, 11-Deep

Hello there. Welcome to my new blog which is centered around open-wheel racing (Indycar and Formula 1). Though the name of the blog is in reference to how the cars are lined up on the grid at the Indianapolis 500, that is certainly not the only thing that will be discussed here. My intention is to use this blog to keep myself and the readers up to date on things going on in the racing world. I also hope to discuss some openwheel drivers and events from the past.

My first goal, which I will likely write my first real post about, will be to explain the differences between Formula 1, Indycar and NASCAR, and to explain what I like (or dislike) about each series. There will not be much NASCAR discussion on here, the reasons for which will be explained at a later time. Some things that will be discussed in order for the readers to gain a better understanding of the racing series will be to introduce the drivers, the cars and the rules of both Indycar and F1.

Some things to check out here are the weekly poll at the top right of the screen and the weekly video at the bottom of the page, both of which will be changed every Sunday. Feel free to leave comments as you wish and I would certainly love to receive some questions that you may have.

Being a motorsports writer is a dream job of mine and this blog is the first step towards attaining that goal. I also wish for Indycar to regain some of its popularity that it has lost over the last 15 years or so and for F1 to continue to increase its popularity here in the US. It will be an added bonus for me if I am able to introduce some new fans to the fastest sports in the world.
