Marco put down quite the flyer ! Bordais right behind him . Penske cars so far are off the pace .

Not only is it fast, it is damn good lookin'.

My neighbor up the street....Dixon

Bourdais is not running the 500. Santonio thedouchey is in the SealMaster car.

Qualifying spots have been picked.

Hoping for a Dixon victory.

Woops ...... Bordais set that speed in 2017 I missed that in the article I was reading .

Wow! ! Where did my life go! :eek:

30yrs to the race ago this raced, my very first race car and only Indy car I helped design during my university work placement year

Alfa Romeo March 90C, driven by Al Unser Snr to a 13th placed finish and Roberto Guerrero had a DNF with suspension failure

There have been many since but you always remember your first :cool:

I'm rooting for Alonso ;)

Tomorrow's qualifications televised on NBC. I'll be watching!

You worked on the Alfa March 80C? Awesome! The Porsche version in speedway trim is one of the most beautiful racecars ever, imho.

Surprise: no Penske in the top 9 qualifiers.

Pole shootout tomorrow.

The 3 laps that Dixon laid down as time ran out today shows he will be a contender for pole . Andretti cars are fast !

I gotta give Marco some credit. He was fast.

Good story here on how the new cars with the screens will play out with passing in the race.

I havent kept up with Indy for a while. When did they go to the windscreen style cowls?

It sure seems like the extra boost given has helped the Hondas more than the Chevys. 1 Chevy in the top 10? We'll see how things shape up today at 1:00.

They started working on them two years ago.The company I used to work for, (retired this juJy), help develop the windscreen. Basically aircraft grade.
This is the first year of use.

WOW, way to go Marco!!!!!!

That was fun to watch.
Now for practice to see how well they handle in traffic.

Yes it was, although nascar is on the same time. :D (Where'd the green color go?:confused: ). Practice will be fun.
