The RACER Mailbag, October 4
Welcome to the RACER Mailbag! If you have any questions for RACER’s writers, please send them to mailbag@racer.com. We receive a high volume of questions, so we can’t guarantee that every letter will be published, but we’ll do our best to answer as many as possible. Published questions may be edited for length and clarity. Questions received after 3pm ET each Monday will appear in the following week’s edition.
In regards to Myles Rowe’s rookie year driving a Foyt car, Roger Penske is aligning with Foyt to have them run an extra car, funded by Penske, for Myles. This is part of a technical support agreement between Penske and Foyt. There’s another aspect to the relationship that is not disclosed publicly.
For the Thermal Club $1 Million Challenge, it is expected that around 3000-4000 tickets will be available for purchase. The final number will be determined when they go up for sale, possibly first to members of the IndyCar Nation fan club.
The idea of having the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Cleveland Grand Prix is intriguing, and it could be a win-win for IndyCar fans and the Hall. The proximity of the Hall to the race track makes it convenient for fans to visit and enjoy the races, along with nightly concerts.
If you’re looking for a great view of a large portion of the track, Mid-Ohio would be a nice drive from Pennsylvania and offers the opportunity to walk everywhere inside and outside the circuit. You can get up close to the cars at almost every turn. On the other hand, Barber Motorsports Park is clean and flawless but some sections are not as easy to view. Both tracks have their advantages, so it depends on what you prioritize.
