I couldn't care less if he stays or goes, Vasser seems to be fully
capable of running the team without him. I don't think Dan Pettit has
much of anything to do with the team anymore, does he? Methinks he's
fully wrapped up with the Forsythe team. They could just rename it to
'Team Vasser' or something like that.
Or, maybe PKV will field an ALMS entry. KK must be anxious about the
future of Cosworth and the company has a wonderful 3.6L bi-turbo LMP1
engine that could use a customer...
