2008 Dallara Integra Motorsports IndyLights news, pictures, and information

Target Chip Ganassi Racing and newly created Integra Motorsports have announced a partnership to campaign Marc Williams in the Firestone Indy Lights Series beginning at the St. Pete 100 this weekend.

Williams will drive the #9 Cool Blue Water entry as part of the Chip Ganassi Racing Teams, Inc. driver development programme, adding another level of global appeal to its stable of 12 drivers representing six countries over six series.

The 19-year-old recorded two top-10 finishes in six starts last season and he would like nothing more than to follow the path set by Target IndyCar Series driver and fellow New Zealander Scott Dixon.

'This is an opportunity of a lifetime,' Williams §äid. 'Working wîth a team like Target Chip Ganassi Racing that is seen on a global level is really just an absolute dream come true.

'I intend on making the most out of this opportunity. Integra Motorsports is ready to get the job done and I think we are all excited about contesting the remainder of the Firestone Indy Lights season.'
