Kanaan, who will drive the No. 11 Sunoco "Turbo" car in the Honda Indy 200 at Mid-Ohio on Aug. 4, is preparing for his second foray into sports car racing this year as he'll compete in a Chip Ganassi Racing with Felix Sabates Daytona Prototype in the three-hour Grand-Am race on the Indianapolis Motor Speedway road course July 26.

Not only can he become the first driver to win two major events at Indy (Indianapolis 500, Brickyard 400, Brickyard Grand Prix and United States Grand Prix), he can do it in the same season.

"It took me 12 years to win the '500.' To win two races in Indianapolis, I don't know what to think yet," Kanaan said. I know we have a competitive car. I'm just glad to be part of it."
