TAYLOR OUT AT PANTHER
After crashing out of all six IRL races in 2004, British rookie Mark Taylor is being replaced by American Townsend Bell in the Pennzoil Panther Dallara/Chevy starting this weekend at K.C.
"I think Mark is a great kid and he did a lot for us last year," said John Barnes, one of Panther's co-owners who was referring to Taylor's title run in the Infiniti Pro Series. "But it's time to make a change."
Barnes wouldn't confirm Bell, who won the 2001 Indy Lights title before going to CART and raced last year in F3000, but said the official announcement will be tomorrow.
Hope it's only temporary.
