Eleven years ago in 1997 a group of individuals with various backgrounds including a television producer, a polotician, a radio veteran, a race mechanic, an automobile dealer and the starting quarterback of the local NFL team united with one dream in mind: starting an IndyCar team. Although the team has been through a myriad of changes since then their goals and dreams have not waned. For 2010, Dan Wheldone rejoins the squad who helped him capture second in the 2009 Indianapolis 500.
