Statement from TheMann Racing after the event: "We're all quite relieved Jacques, Hiro, John and Paul were all able to walk away from such a horrific crash, proving as Paul Page said that Indycars are tough customers these days. Chassis can be replaced, drivers can't. Right up until then we...

I doubt it took a lot of convincing. The Spec Fab boys at Vektris like to refer to themselves as the "Special Forces of Manufacturing", and say "when we hear 'it can't be done', we take that as a challenge." Normally such cockiness would to me result in a laugh, with the number of times they've...

Anik Power Systems Established: September 26, 1990 Headquarters: Sydney, Nova Scotia, Canada What does a company that spent many years developing a way to harness solar power from space - and ultimately successfully doing so - have to do with a massive nuclear power station? In the end, just...
