For a few days in late August, the front lines of the upcoming animated adventure STAR WARS: THE CLONE WARS will shift to Infineon Raceway in Sonoma, Calif., and Andretti Green Racing driver Marco Andretti will lead his own army against the "dark side" of his IndyCar Series foes.
 
Andretti Green Racing, Blockbuster Inc. and Lucasfilm Ltd. are collaborating for the second time in 2008, this time in support of the upcoming release of the first-ever animated feature from Lucasfilm, STAR WARS: THE CLONE WARS. Andretti's #26 IndyCar will feature a promotional design during the Grand Prix of Sonoma, which will be run Aug. 24 on the Infineon road course.
 
"I can't wait to roll out the Clone Wars car at Infineon," said Andretti. "I had a lot of fun with the Indiana Jones car at the Indy 500 and I'm hoping that my upcoming battle at Infineon will be as exciting as anything in a Star Wars movie so I can win it for both Blockbuster and Lucasfilm."
