Default bad omen for PT?

Conquest has signed up Enrique Bernoldi, in addition to Franck Pererra. Does this mean no ride for Paul Tracy?

Coz the rumour was that because Conquest partnered up with the remnants of Forsythe, PT would have an 'in' at the new joint venture. Time's running out!

Oh, now THAT is a VERY interesting idea... I had not even considered it. It would allow him to continue road racing and not goto mostly ovals... definitely fingers crossed for something like that.

Yeah, that'd be a pretty cool ride for him, take a year out before Forsythe (or whoever) can find him an IRL seat.

Fingers crossed here too! For all his ups and downs, PT is an exciting driver to watch and definitely deserves a ride!

Or forget about driving around in circles altogether and stick with ALMS.

I think that is the way to go. I would love to see him in ALMS.

Conquest can always enter an extra car at Indy for PT. That's the only one worth winning in the IRL anyway.

Seems the Lola/Cosworth idea wasn't a pipe dream after all.
