Ninety percent of the great drivers over there are tied up, and they're successful. We're still evaluating which way we want to go. Foyt prodigy Kenny Brack, the reigning IRL champion and winner of the 1999 Indianapolis 500, reportedly has signed a contract to drive for Bobby Rahal in the rival Championship Auto Racing Teams FedEx Series in 2000. They're free agents at the end of the race. If they want to go somewhere else, I wouldn't stop 'em.
Some drivers like to go and try different things.
I know Kenny likes road racing. He's focused right now, but he might want to move on. But they're not laughing now. And following a second-place finish to Sam Schmidt in the most recent IRL event at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, Brack is within sight of a second consecutive Pep Boys Million bonus. That will be it for A.J. this year.
