RuSport Out
No RuSport in 2008.
http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/63366 Not completly unexpected after CDW said that they were leaving. So where to now for them, Justin & Dan Petit? If Petit goes back to PKV I think CDW are unlikely to do the same (considering they were happy with Justin, but not the team). Wilson & CDW to Newman/Haas/Lanigan, Minardi, IRL or ALMS? This also leaves us down atleast one car, unless PKV wants to run a third entry next year (but if they can get the money, why not? Considering that they already own three cars, and all will possibly be racing in Mexico). |

Hopefully Justin is now favourite for the NHL drive. Tag will get a drive somewhere because the series needs to support the Canadian ra.... uh, I mean because he's a talented driver.

I'd bet that CDW is done with racing sponsorship, and will turn up shortly as a sponsor for professional golf. I'd bet the company thinks this would be a better way to reach (and to entertain) the people who make buying decisions for their products.

Is Tags in trouble? I thought RuSport and Rocketsports had re-seperated?
Ergo, just the #9 entry is gone. |

...well, apart from the fact that Rocketsport Racing will probably dissappear due to lack of budget anyway.
