American driver Graham Rahal was pleased to announce that he has already found the budget required to run a full season of IZOD IndyCar Series in 2011.
Although Rahal could not disclose yet in which team he would be competing, the 21-year-old confirmed that he would be sponsored by the TBC Retail Group, advertising a variety of its tire and automotive brands during the course of the season.
After losing his ride with Newman-Haas Racing before the start of the current season, Rahal raced for four different teams over the course of the 2010 campaign.
Thanks to Sarah Fisher, he was able to start out the season and then contested the Indianapolis 500 with his father Bobby's Rahal Letterman team.
Rahal had also a stint with Dreyer & Reinbold as a substitute for injured Mike Conway and eventually returned to Newman/Haas for the majority of the second half of the season after securing new backing.
Speculation has linked Rahal to a Panther Racing seat for 2011, a possible third Ganassi entry, or a full-time return for Rahal Letterman.
