Shall we formalize that into a friendly wager? I got a six pack of some good brew that says he won't outpace them. How should we measure the result? Best lap time in a race? Finish position in a race? Positions improved in a race?

Points position at the end of the season.

d....just to clarify

are you suggesting that only 1 driver racing for a team that was in CC last season will finish above Ed in the final standings?



becuase from a gambling standpoint...and i like to gamble.....I'd get in on that action

Ok, I'll take that wager. To reiterate, the bet is that Ed will score more points this season than 90% of the former CC drivers this season?

I could be SNEAKY :devil: and leave it at that, so that points by Tony and Helio would count AGAINST Ed , but I won't. I'll make it: Ed will score more points this season than 90% of the 2007 CC drivers in the ICS this season? To make this fair, we should only include drivers who enter the same races as Ed. That way if he or any of the CC drivers should have to, god forbid, sit out a race or two, the tally won't work against them. Fair enough?

I am betting against this happening, downtowndeco is betting it will. Wager: a six pack of GOOD brew, no budwiser, busch, pabst or other such garbage.

So, it's game on then? :D

I can taste that Stoudt's Double IPA already.... :beer: And I was even nice enough to structure the wager so that the old guard Champ Car guys already in the ICS didn't count against Ed. <big ol' grin>

I'd take Justin Wilson or Will Power over Ed in a heartbeat.

I'd take Will Power over Ed in just one race!

Most of the boys who are in Indycar have quite a few years in CART/Champcar, and ovals before taking the money and running to the other side.
