Crash.net is reporting that Foyt Racing is looking to replace Jeff Bucknum with a more esperienced driver, and supposedly the guy on the top of their list is former Target Chip Ganassi driver Darren Manning. The report also states Foyt is looking at Tomas Enge and Townsend Bell as possible drivers for the team in 2007.
Huh?
I mean no disrespect to the drivers mentioned above, but are these the top drivers available? Is Larry Foyt not concerned with accident rates?
Darren Manning: 24 starts, 0 wins, 6 accidents (25%)
Townsend Bell: 12 starts, 0 wins, 4 accidents (33%)
Tomas Enge: 17 starts, 0 wins, 7 accidents (41%)
This is odd to say the least.
RLL is Going All-in For the Future

As of yesterday, we are exactly halfway through the IndyCar offseason. The
season finale at Nashville ran 92 days ago, and the green flag will fly in
St. P...
6 days ago
Would be a good move for Foyt...
I dont know if it will mean better results though....
