All things being equal BC should have already done his tour of duty in Indy Lights and would be setting his sights on the big race along with Levi, Windom and some of the other cream of the short track crop.

Why didn't Peyton Manning not need a buy-a-tryout? Why didn't Joey Votto need a buy-a-spring training? I can't help but think that if the NFL was run by the IndyCar bosses of a few years ago Jim Sorgi would be the Colts starting QB if he should show them the money and Manning would be in the Arena Football League making peanuts.

If I can get off work I will go to the Freedom 100 to root for Bryan Clauson. I am hoping he has a huge cheering section and hope Brandon Wagner does as well. Hopefully Randy will see this and use his influence and power of persuasion. I won't worry what the IndyCar owners think because, like Eddie Gossage says, they don't listen to the fans anyway.
