ALMS is probably what Ryan wanted and expected to do for 2005, barring a miracle ChampCar ride opening up (which it nearly did with Jenson, in fact. Reading between the lines and thinking out loud, maybe he'll get a chance in any second Jenson car later in teh eyar at non-clashing rounds?). He'll surely know not to take this as a cast-iron gurantee of a 2006 drive, or even a guarantee of beign first in line if a drive opens up, but at least it's a chance. Can we say it's a good Dalziel for him?
