I’m originally from Columbus, Ohio which is also the home of Rahal Letterman racing.  I used to watch Bobby Rahal race sports cars at Mid-Ohio in the 1970′s.  He will enter four cars in this years Indianapolis 500.  Scott Sharp and Jeff Simmons will be driving:

Sharp, who won the pole at Indy in 200 has driven in 12 previous races at the Speedway, with a best finish of seventh in 2005.   This is his first season with Rahal Letterman, which won the 500 with Buddy Rice in 2004.  “One of the things that attracted me to Rahal Letterman Racing was the team’s success at Indianapolis,” Sharp said.   “I have won races and championships during my career, but the ultimate success at Indianapolis is something that has eluded me.”

That quote from ESPN.
