Stating next year on the 100th anniversary of the Indianapolis 500 the race time is being moved back an hour to 12 noon. Is this going to open it up again for one or more of the Cup drivers to run both the Indy 500 and the Coca-Cola 600? Thoughts?
 
Still will be awful tough to do both, but who knows, Robby or Tony may try it.

john andretti, montoya, hornish and a few others are capable of doing it. little chance of winning both or even placing top 10 in both though. i think the fad has worn off.
 
I thought it was kinda cool when they did it although when Indy moved their start time the last time it ruled out the option. Who was the most successful at this? I seem to remember Tony Stewart doing well once. As far as who might do it, I'd throw Robby Gordon into the hat.
 
I think Tony finished 10th in the 500 and 4th in the 600 on his first double. Best to date.
