Another sign that unification between the IRL and Champ Car could come in the next few days is that Champ CarWorld Series director of operations, Paul 'Ziggy' Harcus, has accepted a new position with Andretti Green Racing as team manager for its IndyCar Series operation.
Harcus 'defection' to the IRL follows not long after another key Champ Car official, former race director Tony Cotman, moved in the same direction.
With both sides still talking over a possible merger, AGR's acquisition is being noted as a possible indicator that there will be only one open-wheel series in 2008.
