2006 Rop

[Danny Noonan]

At this point, does anyone know of any driver who would practice during Indy ROP on the first 2 days the track is open? There don't seem to be any new teams on the horizon and I haven't heard anything about new drivers. What happens if there are no rookies for ROP?

Hopefully what happens is that everybody gets to run on Opening Day. I didn't like last year's setup at all, although what'shername made it sort of interesting.

Scott Mayer?

"what'shername " did more than make it interesting. She actually got the IRL into the news while doing a pretty good job of putting on a show of speed and determination.

I know that, was just being glib. Or something. But without that going on, it would have been a very slow day.

Opening Day needs to have a lot of running going on to kick the month off right.

Like the swallows returning to Capistrano.

Cause I'm not an American short-tracker

...and I always miss my marks during Panther pit stop practice here in the shop.

It would seem a bit early for confirmed rookies. Great time for people claiming the desire to form new teams throwing, 'We've got some offers, we're looking at a few names, and the always popular If we can secure funding' out there to attract some attention. I would think the winter will be spent making deals and any real announcements would come closer to the opening of testing.

How about Sarah McCunne?
