...Conquest Racing with Owner Eric Bachelart and Driver Franck Perera. I'm sure everyone here is familiar with both !:wink

A second entry is also in the making with a driver to be announced.

The team has previous IRL experience in 2002 with driver Laurent Redon.

That's two cars committed of an expected eight. The rest should be coming in the fold in the next few days as time is of the essence !

Yeah I remember Laurent Redon wasn't he the french hairdresser, what a quality driver. :thumb And I am sure that Conquest's new driver will be of the same caliber.:moon:

Driver Will Power for Walker Racing and Graham Rahal for Newman/Haas/Lanigan Racing are also now confirmed from CCWS to the "new" IRL !

Was wondering if either had ever raced at THAT or Salem or Winchester , maybe ? ... Illinisprintfan might jog his memory and let us know ! :O:
