If injured Mike Conway is fit in time, he could very well be racing in the final IndyCar road course event of the season at Sears Point.

Even though J.R. Hildebrand’s services have been retained for the event, Dreyer & Reinbold Racing co-owner Robbie Buhl said the plan was to run a third car for Conway at Sears if his recovery had progressed well enough.

"If Mike Conway is far enough along in his rehab, which he is aggressively taking with his leg, he's shooting to be back in a race car for Infineon," Buhl said.

"If that is the case, we will have a car available for him, as well.”

Fellow team owner Dennis Reinbold added that Conway's back injuries had progressed well and that the challenge was "definitely the leg" between now and the Sonoma event on 22 August.
