Dunno. Is that what he told you?

Did Marco quit the IRL to run in the Rolex series? Did Tony Stewart
quit NASCAR to run in the Rolex series?

Could it be that its just a matter of having good talent running in
several different kinds of racing?

Are there any qualified drivers from the IRL running in that event?

That Rolex stuff is not even racing. It is just observed trials. Any form
of racing with headlights is just an extended happy hour because those
headlights would not hold up for five seconds when they got to bump
drafting.

Really? I thought the only drivers that ran on the track as part of an
extended happy hour was Al Unser, Jr.

Did DE quit NASCAR to drive the other Daytona race that month? Did Jr
quit to race Corvettes? Plenty of drivers stretch out to explore new
horizons. Not as much as in the past.

You said qualified and IRL in the same sentence.
