there seems to be some serious smoke about a nice big payday for a racer who can win Indy and the 600 on the same day

until the times change back to where they were before, never gonna happen
The IRL/Indy 500 is desparate to get drivers to particiapre who someone outside of Central Indiana has ever heard of.Quote:

Might as well be $100mil, it's not likely to ever happen. Both I500 & C600 are usually won by highly favored to win drivers (about the top 6 or so in each series, sometimes it's only 3 or 4.) If you are in that elite group, there is too much at stake in your own series to risk it, running a different race series race on the same day. Best chance to happen Ganassi putting JPM in I500.
so the consensus is...no one will ever win it so YAWN!
?
looking more and more like that will be the case for 2011Quote:
