Great news if true... But can Autosport be trusted?

I hope this is indeed the case. Darren's a fantastic young driver, and it was a shame when the Coyne drive came and went without him in contention for it, and no Team St George full-time effort appearing to be on the horizon. I'll be looking forward to the chance to support a British driver this year with Dario gone.

Fantastic news, one less talentless pay driver in the field and a talented Brit for us to cheer on at Brands!

Walker's press conference isn't for another half-hour yet, so we'll know for sure before long!
But already the "Teams" page on CART.com is listing a second car for the Walker team! Rodolfo Lavin in the #5. So there's another confirmed car on the grid! |

Good for Manning. He showed well at Rockingham last fall. He will make a good addition. Good luck to him...
