No cars for sale
What about the Champ Car equipment Team Rahal and Fernandez Racing own? Could a prospective team owner buy that? The teams say they are keeping their hardware for the time being.
Rahal general manager Scott Roembke said since Champ Car will keep the same cars for 2005, it makes sense to hang on to theirs. “We’ve got two young drivers in [Toyota] Atlantic and if they want to move up, it would be nice if they didn’t have to go out and buy new equipment. We’ll also test Danica [Patrick] in one of them later in the year.”
Fernandez’s Tom Anderson sounded more coy about his cars. In responding to several questions, including one about using the cars themselves, he said: “I don’t know yet.”
--------------------------------------
Fernandez, it is said, wants to run Mexico City, which is held three weeks after the end of the IRL season.
One question though: Do they still have the engines, which belonged to CCWS, or where are they going to get them?
