Track Forum Question

[Napoleon]

I was kicked off of TF years ago.

Any way I just went over there to see if anyone is talking about a potential 2 car team that I heard would be fielded next year from what I consider to be a source that would be in a position to know this information directly from the team owner. I see no threads going back a couple months that obviously are on the subject so looked for a search function and it appears that they have none. If you are registered is there a search function available (and if so anyone interested into checking into this)?

[Andrew Longman]

It's along the top. Sixth button from the left. But it does appear you need to log on to see the button. What do you want to know?

Looks like they're going to need to run heat races. :gomer:

[miatanut]

Yesiree Bob. They'll be sending teams home before the main event. Just like CART at its peak. Except they will be qualifying before empty houses and racing in front of 1/3 full houses.

And this is just what they know about now. Lot's more deals in the works!

:rofl:
Why don't we have a barf smilie?

[Don Quixote]

Yep, looks like they'll run 11 rows of 3 at all races. :tony:

[Napoleon]

FWIW . . . .

Well the rumored 2 car team that I heard about isn't mentioned on any part of your list. It will be interesting to see if anything comes of it.

I gave Andrew all the details of exactly what I had heard and from whom and his search over at TF turned up not a murmur on this potential team.

[miatanut]

It's one of the deals still in the works. There's AT LEAST five more cars in the works. Next year's gunna be BIG! :gomer:

[oddlycalm]

Next year's gunna be BIG! :gomer:
Yes, huge. :laugh:

Interesting stuff on KVRT, especially since Jeemy is in Brasil this week helping Moraes secure sponsorship.

Forsythe - 1 (?)

I doubt that very much...

I doubt that very much...

That's why I posted it, might be what Napoleon was looking for...

[stroker]

Do we have anyone in Las Vegas? Seriously--I'd like to know what the odds are on the IRL failing to answer the bell in 2010.

[coolhand]

go to autoracing1.com for all the latest racing news :gomer:

trackforum? I have not thought about these sites for 3-4 years now.

Thanks but still not on your list, but I have got it from a little birdie that someone e-mailed a national autoracing reporter with a question about what this team is doing in the IRL so I would think that it would cause that reporter to start asking questions.

I am very comfortable with believing that this team owner in fact said it is a "done deal" that he is fielding a 2 car team next year. I absolutely trust that my sources are honest and in a position to have been told that, I just wonder if the owner was being very very optimistic.
