I think Dare will be out, for a while, he's broken his right femur and right arm

Big drop off in terms of cars from Indy, but that was to be expected. I shall get some beers in for Sat. night and watch the race, I always like the night races.

It's a shame that we're down to only 22, especialyl for Dare. I guess Shiggy will get anothr (undeserved) chance. PDM have obviously gone, and Honda haven't continued to fund Beck for Nakano.

yeah shame about nakano , I thought he has done reasonably well and deserved more time to gain experience.
I guess Indy was more costly for several teams but hopefully future races will provide more cars |

I dislike the fact that indy only has 22 cars, TG's rule to not allow cross chassis hopping in the series was dumb- I am sure every one would love to race in respective events, Indy cars at RoadAmerica, champ drivers finally driving texas...but that said with the exception of Giaffone- Looks like a champcar grid in the top 10!! Every one should fear Target, and that sneaky Tora he is just getting better and better- Any thought of him winning an American Open Wheel race? He did smash Formula Nippon-

Tora does seem to have settled down lately, and is producing consistent speed.

As I said at the start of teh season, I reckon Tony Kanaan is probably the strongest of title contenders

I have to say, Tony is looking pretty strong now, he might just take it.
