Q: What's the scoop on HVM. Did Wiggins forget to pay rent? Did he know that this was coming and got his equipment out ahead of the landlord? Does Simona have a ride?
Why is there nothing in the press? On another note, I've signed up for the ticket info at Milwaukee and have yet to hear anything, got any news on what pricing for tickets and paddock passes will be?

RM: Just a misunderstanding between Wiggins and the landlord and all was resolved by last Sunday morning. Simona's car is on its way to Homestead and I didn't write anything because Keith was in Europe and by the time he got back to me, there was no story. Nothing yet on Milwaukee but we'll keep you posted when we hear something.
Q: What is the story with Rafa Matos? There are a lot of Matos apologists out there, saying that he is just about to explode on the scene. I know Rafa won everything under the sun including an Atlantics championship, Indy Lights Championship, and won his first two races in lights at St. Pete a few years ago. But he has now had two full seasons in equipment that is at a minimum average to above average. In 32 races, he only has a pair of top 5’s and no podiums. He has fared a little better on the road courses than the ovals. I thought he might contend for wins on the road courses but that hasn’t been the case. Has he ever made the fast six? He is in a paid seat that several free agents want with better results in Indycars, is it time for the team to make a change or is the team the problem? So the million dollar question is does he have it to be a race winner or is he the next Jeff Simmons.....
