Title: More good news for ALMS?
Post by: Fax on June 01, 2006, 04:19:58 pm
This is interesting....
Franchitti eyeing NASCAR?  According to Gordon Kirby's latest column on his website, Honda money for driver salaries in the IRL will dry up at the end of this year and Dario Franchitti is looking at NASCAR as a possibility.
He adds, Honda looks likely to spend most of its time and money on its new Acura ALMS program next year with teams expected from Andretti-Green and Rahal and possibly Newman/Haas.

Do you mean to tell me that the big name Honda-powered teams and drivers bolted from Champ Car to the IRL for HONDA money?  I'm shocked.  Shocked, I tell you.   ::)

Word on the street is that Newman-Haas is a safe bet.  (I'll go out on a limb and guess that they'll be using the Lola, too).
