Ken, on this, I strongly disagree with you. The whole point of this promotion was to get some drivers from other disciplines of auto racing. If it's down to getting guys like Stewart to fill the spots, then abandon the the promotion. Or ease the restrictions on who can compete. I don't care if he has a test session or two, he is not qualified to enter a race where the competitors are wheel to wheel at over 200 mph. His discipline and IndyCar's discipline of racing have as much to do with each other as baseball and football. Both use a ball, but after that.....Quote:

This has a real chance of turning out very badly and desperation for higher TV ratings would be a very weak excuse.
