Nascar Team Owner To Run Indy 500

Did any one see on Jayski's sight a Nascar team owner will announce his entry in the Indy 500 at a press conference on Monday. Just wanted everyone's thoughts. Could it be Robby... I no He said he wasn't running the 500 this year so if not then who??

It would make 100% sense that it is RPM

Andretti (long ties to the king) in one car and Almendinger in the other

First of all, RGM has run Indy several times so it's not him. The report said it's a first time owner. My first thought was Stewart, followed by Bob Jenkins fielding an entry for Andretti. However, Nascar.com is reporting that it's Richard Petty w/ John Andretti.

So I take it that Andretti isn't running the full NASCAR schedule?

I am skeptical the King is happy about this. Hasn't he been saying no to beer sponsors forever for religous reasons? I think he is the name on the door but not really in charge of this decision.

I didn't think Richard Petty wanted anything to do with beer sponsorship..........oh wait, Richard Petty doesn't have anything to do with Richard Petty Motorsports now does he.
