Indy Racing Revolution will have updates during the event today beginning at 4 p.m. ET. How will the new IndyCar pilots fare against a field full of drivers that are going for pride, not points? Can veterans Paul Tracy and Jimmy Vasser summon one more brilliant drive? And after thirty years of racing, will Champ Car go out with a bang or a whimper?
