Chris, if we collect all the spare change in our couches, maybe we can make em an offer?
It is a SAD state of affairs there....
I've been considering the prospect of fans collectively buying an IndyCar team.Quote:

A lot has been rumored about this team for weeks now as far as new ownership goes and obviously no one knows what is going to happen because the rumors are just so scattered. Of the names mentioned the ones I would consider serious contenders are Bryan Herta, Robby Gordon and Carl Russo. How much of this is people throwing out names, I don't know, but all three make sense to me Carl seemed to enjoy his time in Champ Car and had legitimate time constraints that forced him to sell RuSport. Herta wants to move up, and could bring the resources of his lights team to the deal and Robby Gordon, well I'm not sure what is going on with Robby at the moment, but I've heard he's considering it.Quote:

Whatever happened to Carl's old partner, turned Forsythe partner, Petit (sp?)? He hopped around from team to team in ChampCar, seemed like a well funded guy.Quote:

I think the reason there isn't a Foysthe Racing anymore has more to do with Gerry not liking to lose money, combined with age and health issues.
Word is unless NHL finds a big sponsor or a buyer they will shut their doors after Indy.
Murphy The Bear is reporting Jacques Villenueve will join Newman/Haas.
As a driver or owner (or both)?
