No Indy 500 this year for Robby: DOES THIS MEAN [winning the appeal] YOU [#7-Robby Gordon] WON’T ATTEMPT THE INDIANAPOLIS 500 THIS YEAR? “It was more of a fact if we’re on the outside of the top 35, we really weren’t going to have a shot at making the Chase in 2008, we needed to do something big. Let’s go try to win Indy or something. That’s the pure racer coming out in me that wants to succeed. That deal is off.”(Dodge Motorsports PR)(3-8-2008)

Kinda sucks would like to see him do Indy in the future.

Yeah, that was posted yesterday morning. He already said as much a week ago....It was all contingent on him being in the hunt for the chase. Which is really to bad, he is near retirement age for open wheel racing already.

It was a threat against NA$CAR all along. He was going to make due on it too.

I would not be suprised one bit if we saw an Irl entry/s in the next couple of years from RGM for the full Irl season as RG continues to grow his multidisciplined racing empire.

I would suspect RG would love to win the Indy 500 as an owner.
