1996 Indy Racing League co-champion Calkins will attempt to make his fifth consecutive Indianapolis 500 start with Bradley Motorsports. His best finish at Indy was 10 th in 1998. I think it's an interesting approach to helping people. Autism is not very well known. We're excited about being a part of a program to create awareness and a new level of visibility for CAN so that it can attract the proper funding it needs.
Autism is the third most common developmental disability in the United States.
It affects more than 400,000 Americans. CAN's Indianapolis program will be supported by several other major associate sponsors, which will share signage on the car and enjoy all other related benefits. Those negotiations are being finalized. Calkins and Edwards unveiled the CAN paint scheme that will appear on the car at Indianapolis during the MCI WorldCom Indy 200 on March 19 at Phoenix. The 84 th Indianapolis 500 is May 28.
