22 full timers and 2 part timers lookin to add more races. 10 Chevy, 12 Honda. 2 new full time owners, 2 new part time owners. 29 cars confirmed for Indy so far. Next years schedule has been out for 2+ months. And its not even xmas yet.

Good stuff.

Who are the 29 confirmed? Gommendy or whoever it was pulled out from what I heard.

That puts the 500 total up to 28 confirmed rides, and 2 "I want to do this" rides (Kyle Larson and Ryan Blaney, both who drive for Chip and Roger respectively in NASCAR).

We already have, if you count unconfirmed rides, 33 for the 500 already :stare:

With that, we are at 21 cars full time. All that's left is Coyne's second car to put it at 22, with 2 part time cars.

So we're going up 1 car full time, but we have more teams and two teams testing the waters as well on part time deals.

Wonder if they're going to run two cars for those four races or just have him and Kaiser split the same car (and maybe run two in the 500).
