CART never did it. It was all one series, and back in about 1995 (?) tony george took a direction others didn't want to go (he was the pres of irl, before brian barnhardt) so, owners started the championship auto racing teams..known today as CART. They ever since have done their own thing..and, personally I like them better. Road courses, and cooler looking cars, imo. However, there is always talk in the air of the two series getting back together, but that seems to not happen. Many think that the U.S. cannot have 2 open-wheel series, cause the money and sponsership and tv time just isn't there.

CART went bankrupt, by the way... That series is now known as Champ Car World Series, sponsored heavily by Bridgestone and Ford. IRL did something that CART lacked, and that was providing a cheap racing platform. CART kept getting closer to F1 technology and that was hurting the smaller people. IRL went to naturally aspirated V8s and limited the amount of electronics on the cars, sort of like an open-wheeled NASCAR if you will. IRL has flourished, CART went bankrupt and the Champ car series is still struggling. You do the math. :)
