Bringing championship-winning experience and a wealth of racing knowledge, Genoa Racing today announced that it will field a two-car effort in the 2007 Cooper Tires Presents The Champ Car Atlantic Championship Powered by Mazda.

The announcement serves as a homecoming for the Genoa team, owned by Angelo Ferro, as the squad returns to the Atlantic Championship after competing in the series in the early 90s. Former Atlantic driver and longtime successful open-wheel racing engineer Thomas Knapp will serve as team manager and lead engineer on the reconfigured Genoa squad, while former Champ Car champion and Atlantic standout, as well as current Champ Car PKV Racing co-owner, Jimmy Vasser will be a team consultant

Jimmy won 6 races and 8 poles with those guys, finishing 2nd in '91 and says he'll do whatever he can to help them succeed in '07. Great Atlantic news. (sounds like the whole thing came together at a 50th anniversary celebration. Never underestimate the inhibition lowering qualities of the drink!):)
