  • Whose crews they use?

    Ok, I'm curious about the AGR situation. Franchitti switched to the 27 car but did he keep his 26 crew? I'm assuming they basically just switched paint schemes but I don't know...

    Also, does anybody know what Michael's crew is going to look like? I've never been an Andretti fan but for some reason I just need to see this guy win this race.

    Dario was the 27 car before, too...

      Yeah, I might have gotten that backwards from how I meant it. So Dario kept his number, he kept his crew as well?

        There's certainly no rule that says a crew has to remain with a number.

        Except for raceday, testing, etc., it's quite likely all AGR's guys and gals work on more than one car if not all. It would be economically silly to not do that unless a sponsor paid extra for the exclusivity and I don't see any sponsor seeing that as beneficial.

            I believe I heard he had to change crews. I know during the PHX test, he almost pulled in the wrong pits.

              He still has the same crew, but they are all wearing Jim Beam uniforms and he kept pulling into where the Arca Ex guys were.

              It's like Jeff Burton after he left the 99 ride, and he went to pull in the 99 pit and the 99 car was already there.

              It would make my life if Dario did that during a race.
              "Ninety-two years ago [the Indy 500] was probably like any other race," said 2005 winner Dan Wheldon. "But over time it's just created so many storylines and history for people of our generation that now it's just massive. People value that history and tradition and you just can't take that away."

                  Ouch, wonder whatBryan Herta would think about his number being jacked. He is the Rodney Dangerfield of AGR

                    I dunno, I wonder what Wheldon thinks about his number #1 getting jacked...
