Chances are, unless you drive for one of "the big three"(Penske, Andretti-Green or Target/Ganassi), the odds of winning aren't good.
As for the drivers........I think Helio, Dixon and Kanaan are the best bets to do well in 2008, but don't count out either Marco or Danica as well...with the departures of both Sam Hornish, Jr. and Dario Franchitti over to the land of the stockers(a/k/a NASCAR), the chances are it'll be any of the ones above

I sincerely hope TK shines this year (as always, but new babies have a way of usurping your attention span), and am anxious to see how Ryan Briscoe will do in '08.
It would be nice to see Danica get her just rewards: It's got to be frustrating for her...
Vitor is due a stunning season, and that would be a good thing too.

Dixon...Helio....TK... Briscoe (the surprise). Same crew as usual. Can't wait till the season starts. As usual Danica running in 7th spot moving up to third through pit cycles then fading back to 7th through 9th. She's so predictable. Great gal but can't make a pass if her life depended on it.
Have a nice day!

Helio/Penske will be great this yr...I just hope some how Danica can get a win.. As far as the championship, it will probably go down to Helio,Dixon, Weldon and Kaanan, Briscoe is going to be the sleeper, I think he might be someone to really watch..

The usual suspects of Kanaan and Dixon, though even better with Franchiiti and Hornish gone to NASCAR.
Castroneves will also improve.
Danica runs better each year and I fully expect her to finally get that first win in 2008.

Who cares?
Spoiled rich kid Tony George destroyed open-wheel racing by trying to grab all the power when creating his Indy Racing League.
Now the only way they can keep it going is by twisiting the rules to allow their "star," Danica, to run at a lighter weight than everyone else. She should win every race with that advantage, but has never won anything- and she's on the best team out there!

The big three (as usual). I'm hoping for the dark horse to come to life this year (PANTHER)!!
