Statement From Rahal Letterman Racing and Bobby Rahal
By Bram • Jan 29th, 2009 • Category: IRL, Newsflash, Press ReleasesThis statement for Rahal Letterman Racing is in response to a published newswire story that stated that the longtime race team had pulled out of the Indy Racing League for 2009.
Bobby Rahal, co-owner of Rahal Letterman Racing:
“As I said in the quote from the story, as of this time we do not have any sponsorship that will allow us to compete in the IRL in 2009, but by no means does that mean that we are giving up. We are continuing to search for sponsorship to run the 2009 season and to run in the Indianapolis 500 and we feel that there is still time for us to put something together that will allow that to happen.”
In addition to its IndyCar efforts, Rahal Letterman Racing remains committed to its programs in the Firestone Indy Lights Series as a partner with Andersen Racing, its American Le Mans Series program with BMW Rahal Letterman Racing Team as well as its new partnership with Formula BMW Americas.
