    No such luck. That's a wingless sprint car, as USAC would race. They've turned the Silver Crown cars into this:

    Not too popular of a move, I would guess.

    FWIW Both Milka & Mitrisin were at Daytona testing, albeit without cars. Cahill just might get this thing off the ground after all.

    Excuse my grammer, They were in attendance with credentials at the Daytona tests.

    Although, if you read "testing" as a noun, the sentence works. If you read it as a verb, of course it doesn't. I think if I was in English comp, I would get a "-5" for clarity. :

    During the Rolex 24, she made brief mention of the Cahill IRL effort and she didn't seem all that hopeful that a deal would come together. More of a "maybe... we'll see" type thing.

    If Milka's hubby made couple of calls, no doubt, she'd have enough money to cover her side of a ride buy in the time it takes an EFT to get from Venezuela to Indiana. Wonder why the deal hasn't come together? Is it going to be an Indy only deal, if there's a deal at all?

    The thought of Milka doing an Indy 500 run with no previous IRL experience is terrifying.
