Yes, there was uncertainty but it didn\u2019t feel like it was going to be any worse where we were. I inked the signature (on the new contract) on the Wednesday afternoon before the event started on Friday morning. It went right to the wire and that was nerve-racking.’<\/p>\n IndyCar pitched on potential Colombian street race (Racer)<\/a><\/p>\n ‘There isn’t a track, but there’s a number of different places where a track could be put together. I saw three different versions. That\u2019s what people like Tony Cotman do. It\u2019s sometimes long process to figure out if it could make sense or not.
