Sunoco blue coming back!

Just read that Pantano secured a drive in a Sunoco sponsored machine. It'll be neat seeing that livery again. He made the F3000 a bit interesting too.

weren't you one of the ones so confident of Cart's imminent death only a few months ago?

I've read this in autosport, but I've also read that it may all be a story, and Seventhgear is even reporting that the other teams hate the BC motosports guy so much (from screwing them over in the past), that they are threatening to pull their entries if BC motorsports is allowed in.

Anyone have any idea what is really going on here?? :confused:

Is BC Motorsports confirmed? I sure would like to see Sunoco on the side of a car again.

It seems that alot of people believe that "BC Motorsports" is little more than a PR scam. Nobody seems to know anything. So I guess we'll just have to wait and see. (Something we've all become rather accustomed to doing this offseason!)

The Seventh Gear people hate everyone, except Jimmy Vasser and Memo Gidley and Alex Barron, it seems, and love to shout LOSER! on every occasion. I would not take their opinion as gospel.

But there is no word on the pitlane about this group and I'd wait and see.

It wasn't that I was confident that it would die (I didn't want it to) it's that I wasn't so confident that it would survive the attacks made by TG (real or imagined) and the defections. I still don't like the IRL or its intent. Just wondering, how many shares of CART stock do you own?

No mention of them by CART as of yet. I hope this Pantano guy doesn't get TG'ed.

Yes, I read on ChampWEB that BC is apparently nothing more than a PR scam... at the moment. I think this is a case of wait and see...

Strange. Shame if Pantano doesn't make it onto the grid, he's a great talent.
