Article move / Article title change

Per lengthy discussion at WP:AOWR during the summer and fall of 2014, the article titles for this page (along with all 1979-2003 CART pages), was revised per contemporary sources. Doctorindy↔Talk 14:09, 31 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I cannot figure out how to edit that table of entrants and cars, but maybe an editor can pick this up. Buddie Boys did not run his Rascar at Pocono. The team with the #67 and #68 cars was Buddie Boys Racing, not Rasmusseun Racing, and Buddie Boys was the car owner, not a prospective driver. The team did not go to the Pocono race as they blew up their remaining car's engine in testing before Milwaukee. I have searched and failed to find any press reference to Boys' car after a mention in the Calgary Herald, Friday, 6 Jun 1980, so I don't know where this has come from.
