New Team with solid background for 2006???
Hello People,
Found this on another forum. Am somewhat surprised with the information that was included. What do you think? Serious or fake? Anyone hear anything? http://www.sponsorship.com/forums/bi...6+&DayFilter=7 |

My money is on Mo Nunn looking to start up in Champ Car again. It would be great if he could find the dough.

Back in September, Nunn was contemplating a return to Ganassi. So the racing certainly isn't out of his blood.

I don't think Nunn will ever be a team owner again. Too much hassle. I can see him being a consultant though.

Eddie Jordan? Eddie Irvine? Mo Nunn is another possibility.
Worth adding that the nature of this reference implies that the team will only happen if they manage to find sponsorship. |

I should apply I can be a floor sweeper. What else can a 17 year old do for a part time job?

What about the team that is owned by Cedric the Entertainer? Maybe that team is the one being referenced?

The team that you are taking about is not owned by Cedric the Entertainer, they just get promoted by him (I think!). The team that yoou are taking about is actually HMV but they will now be known as CTE.

Last week AR1 linked this to this rumor:
01/19/06 AutoRacing1.com has learned that a possible new Champ Car team is in the works for 2006. We doubt it will come together at this late stage in time, but it involves a former driver and a UK/Africa businessman. We can give you one hint - the team initials would be MDR. We hear of a possible 2nd new team for 2006, but it is just in the embryonic stage so we do not give it much chance. In a related rumor, we have now become aware of a number of possible new Champ Car team owners for 2007, one of which will make for some good press worldwide. The team would certainly come out of the box ready to win on Day 1. The owner would not be an American. _______ I don't know how seriously to take it. |

R for Racing presumably. It could be someone with the initials M D, or an M and a D. Does anyone know of any African-British businessmen who are known racing fans, or any ex-drivers who have stated an interest in forming a team?
