Barber Open Test entry list

24 cars will take to the track next week at Barber Motorsports Park, among the notable absences, Tony Kanaan, Dan Wheldon, and Paul Tracy. All three drivers have been rumored in a variety of rides, and Kanaan appears to have the best chance of landing a full season ride with K.V. Racing. Wheldon and Tracy most likely are headed for part-time rides.
