That Sound You Hear Is Canada Celebrating

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, the news has finally been dropped. Paul Tracy, who probably wanted to stab someone for taking away a 500 victory he thought was his in 2002, will return to the Speedway for the month of May.

Robin Miller, who dropped out of Ball State and somehow became the most listened-to guy in IndyCar reporting, put the word out on Wind Tunnel with Dave Despain (y'know, between mentions of the minor legue NASCAR race in Nashville) that Paul tracy's name will appear on the entry list for the 500 when it is published this week. He did not mention which team will be putting Tracy in the car, but he seemed pretty sure that "The Thrill From West Hill" will be on track.

Canada now has two drivers flying its flag in Indianapolis (assuming Tagliani and Conquest stick around), and The Defender now has someone to hate on when the green flag drops.
