    On many occassions last year Tom drove to get maximum indy points,and not take any risks.will be interesting to see how he performs against the factory cars.Good opportunity for Emmit he did well in the Estoril race but know up against much stronger opposition
    Just because I don't suffer from paranoia,doesn't mean they're not out to get me

    I just want to wish Emmett well. Regardles of whether he is better than Sharp or not.

    One thing I would like to understand. Tom is not eligible for points in the Yokohama Independents Trophy, yet he still runs an Independent car.

    Why is that?

    Cos he won last year with too much of a margin, I.E. you can win the independent trophy if your name isn't Tom Coronell

    I believed it was introduced to stop Tom walking away with it again, I maybe wrong, who won it in 2005? That was Coronell wasnt it? It does allow more teams to have a chance at winning the Independents, but on the other hand it could be bad for sponsorship - if you win it one year, your sponsors might not hang around if you can't win it the following year.
