IndyCar Series teams will begin preparations for the 2008 season with open tests at Homestead-Miami Speedway and Sebring International Raceway.

The first spring training dates are scheduled for February 27-28 on the 1.5-mile, high-banked oval at Homestead-Miami Speedway. IndyCar Series teams will test under the lights from 4-10 p.m. each day for the second consecutive year in preparation for the primetime season opener at the facility on March 29.

The following week, IndyCar Series teams will conduct their first ever open test at Sebring International Raceway. Half the field will test on March 3-4, and the other half of the field will test on March 5-6 on the 1.7-mile, 11-turn circuit.
