Is there any chance RedBull will..........

[IndyIRLman]

run 3 cars this weekend? Especially at what seems to be a such a difficult track. Or will they just let the 52 set and collect dust.

[MASrules]

I'd bet Beechler will be at the track...

Just wanted to expand this thread out a little

[Doc Austin]

Run it! There will be two races left after tommorrow and then the cars will be useless.
There will be no shortage of young American studs walking around the paddock, so plug one in.

Best bet; go for the experienced, solid guy. I think that means Diz. I don't think there is enough time to get a rookie up to speed safely.

No way I'd run it this weekend.

Why run the risk of wadding the car up for one race when you can get potentially two races out of it if you give a driver a chance to get used to it.

How many drivers have their seats with them at the track?

Beech?
PJ Jones?
Kite?

Too bad but I would guess the car sits. Danny Wheldon should have a Dallara seat in hand there though.

If you are a serious professional looking for work, you ALWAYS bring your gear. You just never know when a spot will open. even if it is just for a race or so, it still gives you the opportunity to showcase yourself and provides another valueable commodity; seat time.

[IndyIRLman]

Doesn't Memo always take his seat with him? Or will he be in Montreal?

On the irl's page they reported that cheever moved rice to the 52 and pulled the 53 for this weekend.

[manson]

Since this is likely to turn into bloody contractual litigation, my guess is that Cheever's legal position is enhanced by having the car sit in the garage.

But lets put Dave Steele in the car, anyway!

Or how about another tempermental road racer who wont stay around too long.

Or maybe REG, LLAMA OF BRIXTON!

Mr Wheldon WILL be in a Panther car in two weeks at Chicagoland, and then at Texas.

move their sponsorship with Tomas and end up in CART next year?

Probably a good chance. Good luck to underacheever in looking for a new sponsor to replace Red Bull and Infiniti. He should have no problem though because of all the races the team has led. Oh wait, that was Tomas, Eddie hasn't done crap.

That was pretty much my point. He is ready to run, has a seat and has tested for Cheever.

BADGER, I think Red Bull will be in the IRL next year. But they might be in CART, too. As far as Schunter driving in CART next year, I'd be surprised if this isn't already a done deal.

Give it up Badger. This is even below your normal standard!

Apparently Mr. Cheever is not one of your favorite drivers or owners.



I'd be willing to bet his sleeping patterns are not interrupted at night.
