Jay Frye, Roger Penske and Indianapolis 500 fans at-large have found their saving grace.
With an assist from DragonSpeed Racing's crew, equipment from A.J. Foyt Racing and the continued persistence of Don Cusick and driver Stefan Wilson, Cusick Motorsports and DragonSpeed have finalized a program for the 33rd entry for this month's Indianapolis 500, the teams announced Thursday.
After the field sat at 32 confirmed entries for more than three months, the news eliminates what, at times, felt like the possibility the 500 would run May 29 with a vacancy in the historic 11 rows of three cars for the first time since 1947.
