Is anybody running the Indy 500 and then entering the World 600 too?

Question

Someone told me Robby Gordon is but I can't find any news.

Answer 1

Noone is doing both races. The start time for the 500 has been moved, making it almost impossible to start both races.

Answer 2

No I think that they have learned doing both races if very hard on their bodies and if you haven't noticed both Robby Gordon and Tony Stewart are rather heavy and getting old not a good mix for running 1100 miles in one day.

Answer 3

That was possible in the past but recently the times of the races has moved around a little making a driver wishing to drive the "1100 mile weekend" as I call it, a little more impossible. Hence no one recently has tried.

I wish it would move back to allow any driver wishing to compete in the 500 & 600 to do so.

Answer 4

No they can't now because the times changed and no one can do the double now (dumb)

I'd like to see Robby do just the 500, he might have a better chance of finishing and finishing well in that one.

Answer 5

No, it's impossible this year because of the timing.

Answer 6

Unfortunately no.  What a mistake for Indy to move the race time?  Having guys like Hornish, Busch, Stewart, Gordon, etc could only help their cause.  Its a shame the Indy 500 is the THIRD most important race of the day behind Monaco and the 600.

Answer 7

Tony Stewart and Robby Gordon (and maybe John Andretti) have done it in the past but not this year.

Answer 8

Nobody is entered in both this year.the timing is so that it could not be done.

Answer 9

no one they changed time makes it impossible to make both races

Answer 10

I haven't heard World 600 in like 20 years.  Wow.  Thats a flashback...
