 For the 2008 season, Jerry Forsythe and former RuSPORT owner Dan Pettit, were to merge their teams into Forsythe/Pettit Racing to field at least two cars.However, changes brought about the unification of open wheel racing into the IndyCar Series.This made competitive racing financially unviable in the eyes of Forsythe and he elected not to race in the IndyCar Series in 2008.
