Should be a great race with those speeds!!!
Fast friday at the brickyard was a fast one. Speeds well over 227 and the temp was in the low 80s. The New IRL hottie put it into the wall but is OK.
Should be FAST for pole day. No rain and temps in the mid to upper 70's.....
Nice recipe for SPEED at the Brickyard..
Any INDY Fans out there??

I've been at the race and all you see is a blurr at 200mph n the turns.
My cousins car was the first car at Indy to average 150 a lap.
nascar at the brickyard run in the 170's..... Once you have seen a car go by you in the hi 230s YOUR NEVER THE SAME!!!!!

Kind of like NHRA...
250-260...Wow,thats fast!
320-330...JESUS FUKKIN CHRIST!!!
IRL cars are at sustained speeds in the 220's....
IF your a go fast guy, You must experience the INDY 500 at least once..
300,000 people party. woodstock with fast cars
If anyone is heading to INDY and needs any info. just let me know.
If Tony George of IRL Fame and the guru's at Cart had half a brain they would open Indy to run what you brung of the two series, they are pretty close to same hp, style, instead of "field fillers" to make a 33 car show, they might have a total of 50 cars trying to make the field, may the quickest 33 make it, and you might have the best 33 out there driving in open wheeled cars.
I agree 100%.Indy used to be about the best, period.Now it's about corporate $$$.I never used to miss Indy,but now well,I'd rather be on the water.Just my .02
I agree, I would like to see the merge BUT with the same equipment. IRL cars are normally aspirated, Cart runs turbos. And with the turbo's, there was always someone cryin about the "pop off" valves, that were issued to the teams to control boost, werent equal....ect...
IRL cars dont have the hi pitch sound of the cart cars.... i.e. no turbo
Deep HP sound..... Hot boaters music.....lol
Teams dont touch there engines... Factory engine leasing.
I wish GM,Ford, and Dodge would get back to the IRL. I wonder why they wouldnt want to compete with the others. These are smaller(non-exotic) engines that the technology could apply to there production engines..
Guess that why im not at GM.....
I think this yr is the first that will use 100% ethanol. Corn burners....
With Cart, It still is TEAM with $$$$$$ wins.... just like F1
My .02
Doesnt sound like you guys have been to or seen an IRL race in a while...
Texas race is always amazing.. Cars so close in the turns that their wheels almost interlock. No fenders to make up for driver errors.... A mistake in an open wheeled car is usually a wreck.
Same teams win every wk in nascar. I like the engine rules but it is still Definately HE WHO HAS THE $$$$$$$$ usually wins the series and most of the races... plus to many races... I still enjoy watching them.
Planning a boating trip on Memorial wknd in Indiana is a CRAPS shoot....
So after freezing my a@@ off in the past, in a boat, on the lake, on memorial wknd, I just decided to go party with everyone else at the track.....
