Good for them. They deserve to have a world class organization pick them up. I would imagine they will run some of the same venues as the ALMS, which means they could also run some of the events that the IRL runs at. What a weekend that would be if all four series ran. Atlantics, ALMS, Indy Lights and IndyCar's.

Have those 6 series at Mid-Ohio, and Road America and the fans will turn out in droves. It would be great to see all 5 tiers in the Open Wheel development ladder at one track.
