Indy 500

[RGFan]

Well, the official entry list is up for the Indy 500, all teams had to submit their entry/s no later than 4/4/07, RGM did not submit a car nor is RG listed as a driver........YET! Interesting rides available.......An entry is open for Penske and a couple for AJ. There are a couple of no names sprinkled in as well. No ride available for Andretti Green, so much for conspiracy theories.:D

Wow,Andretti Green has 5 cars in this year. If it does come down to Marco or Danica to you think there will be team orders? What a stink that will cause.Also,it's kind of weird that A.J. has two open cars.Hmmmmmm? I wonder who he has in mind?Do you think Allmendinger will hop in?

[RGFan]

I think the only team orders you will see are to drive clean. Remember, while Michael is an owner, he was a driver and a son of a driver first.........With him also racing this year, I hope he finally gets a crack at a win. For all of the near misses that RG has had there win wise, Michael has had it worse.

[FlyHiFlyLo]

RG said if he was in the top 15-20 by May he would run.

[woundedyak]

Hey RGFan, Are you going to the 500?

[RGFan]

Hey RGFan, Are you going to the 500?

If I knew in advance that he was going to be there then yes. I have always wanted to do the 500 atleast once in my life. But if I am going to go, I want someone to root for.

[woundedyak]

I hear ya! It's a LOOOONG race to watch with no one to root for. If you change your mind, I have a few seats open in the Condo's off of turn two.

[RGFan]

Sweet. If Rg comes out with an announcement pretty quick here I will give you a hollar. I think I will actually be in Milwaukee for work from mid May to mid July, so that just might be doable.

Hell,if you are that close,you should roll down. Free food and drinks.Getting hit with rubber. I'm not even a big IRL fan,but the seats make it worth it. Let me know!
