Scott Dixon's IndyCar boss has made light of the fact the Kiwi driver, along with his wife Emma and teammate Dario Franchitti, were robbed at gunpoint while ordering food at a Taco Bell drive-thru in Indianapolis overnight. The Kiwi IndyCar driving was getting food for his Chip Ganassi crew team after qualifying first for next Monday's famous Indianapolis 500. Dixon's long-time team boss Chip Ganassi made a joke of the ordeal on Twitter, saying "There goes that Taco Bell sponsorship we were working on I guess". IndyCar driver Tony Kannan said this morning that Dixon was making a food run for a group of drivers. "Scott Dixon and Dario Franchitti are completely fine after being held up last night by two men at a fast-food restaurant," the team said.
