But.... back later this season ? Why ? source: paddocktalk.com - rumors According to the Edmonton Journal, Ranger indicated, "I have some big problems, I need more money." Why ? After finishing 10th in the Champ Car points standings, and becoming the toungest-ever driver to earn a Champ Car podium (Monterrey, 2005), Ranger apparently has run into a lack of sponsorship, and only has enough support for five of the 15 races on this year's schedule. Ranger - born in 1986 - is just 19-years old. The PaddockTalk Perspective: Ranger's racing career is far from over. He's obviously very talented, just inexperienced. And at 19, maybe he should have dropped back to the Champ Car Atlantic series for a season, and bet on the $2 million championship purse. But like other Canadians searching for support from the homeland companies, the racing stars from the North have been getting lost in the cold since Player's was forced out of the racing sponsorship business.
