One of the best-known racing team in the IndyCar series, Rahal Letterman Racing, has announced that it won't participate in the 2009 IRL season because it cannot find a sponsor to support its program.
The team, co-owned by Bobby Rahal and talk-show host David Letterman, won the Indianapolis 500 with Buddy Rice in 2004 and brought Danica Patrick to the IndyCar Series.
RLR will continue to seek sponsorship, and is "reasonably sure" his IndyCar team will compete in the famed Indy 500 in may. The team will also concentrate on its sports car alliance with BMW in the American Le Mans Series.
