I believe his entry would sell tickets.
(who knows, I might even go myself and I wouldn't trade one Sunday night sprint car race at Kokomo for two Indy 500s !!) GYATK
He's in better shape now than when he got out of the Cup car best I can tell. Saw him at Eldora in June and he looked good.

Tony has nothing to prove in a Indy car. I"m thinking about other guys who retired and came back and didn"t have good endings, hate to see it happen again

I don't believe "proving anything", has anything to do with it at all. I don't really think he could do anything that would diminish his stats, career, or perception of him as a racer. That's what's made his whole career what is it to me. My guess is, there is a strong desire for him to win it for himself. I think everyone would agree he's got nothing to prove. I'd love to see it happen. The Daytona 500 wouldn't mean jack**** to me about his career with everything he has done, but Indy would! JMO, it's the only thing that would get me to buy a few tickets.... Well, unless Robert Ballou finds a ride.

I'm not planning any more Indy 500 trips until Kyle Larson is on the entry list myself.

{Really special event to attend, but not being able to see the whole track and therefor race is a game killer for me.}
