Goodbye IndyCar ... Hello NASCAR.

You don't test and run an ARCA race unless you're seriously thinking about crossing over into stock cars.

Still no word one way or another from IRL Champion Dario Franchitti, but Chip Ganassi is getting him some track time this fall in preparation for Daytona in February.
"There's an open test [at Talladega] on Sept. 27th so we'll run that and then come back for the race."
Robin Miller suggests that CGR will announce the signing of Franchitti to a five-year deal to replace David Stremme in the #40 [Canadian Club?] Dodge as early as this week.
