Foyt gets refresher

Larry Foyt, who will enter his third consecutive Indianapolis 500 in the No. 41 Honda-powered Panoz for A.J. Foyt Enterprises, will take a refresher test May 8 at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Michael Andretti and Al Unser Jr. will participate in the refresher program on May 7.

"I'm very excited about coming back to Indy," Foyt said. "It's been a bittersweet experience the last two years because I felt like I've had great months of May leading up to the race, but I've had accidents on the big day. It's an amazingly difficult adjustment coming from the stock cars to the Indy cars, but I've learned a great deal, and I feel very comfortable in the open wheel cars. I'm glad my Dad has the belief in my ability that I can get the job done. I'm looking forward to a great month."
