Panther eventually expanding
The Panther team announced that they will run a second car for the final two races of the season, giving the seat to Dan Wheldon. This is in preparation for a full season next year. No sponsors have been named yet, and the team says that they may run more than just those two events if funding can be found.

Will it be Dan in the car full-time in 2003? And where will the car come form? Will it be one of the cars Green sued for the 500, I remember there was some suggestion of Dan usign one of those from this weekend onwards.

Good on you Panther for taking on Wheldon.
I remember seeing him take the field apart in a FFord race at Donninton in 1996, and he's not looked back since. |
