I also somehow missed the fact that the cars have a boost.

Does it harm the engines? Why not always have it turned up?

Fear of blown engines and fear of speed.

Heavy rain atm. There should be too much track activity until friday according to the commentator.

Amazingly, for once 47's bitching actually worked. :p


I'm here to help ;)

Now I'm gonna start bitching at the rain, see if that does anything.

Fuck you, rain.

*Edit* Yeah everything has been cancelled for today.

Apparently Hinchliffe can do "light training" but still hasn't been cleared to drive. Will be examined again on Thursday.

Looking at the forecast, it doesn't look like anyone will be on track (at least not much) in the next couple days. Going to be a cool, green track for Pole Day though. Hopefully that means grip and speed, and not a bunch of trashed cars.

Some rumbling about a 34th entry for the 500. It may involve AJ Foyt, it may involve Katherine Legge, it may involve someone. Stay tuned.


If it was gonna happen, it would have today. Still some time though. Just from what I've been told.

I hear Penske and Chevrolet caught a little heat from IndyCar today too.

Having to repair the wall now. The one downside of the SAFER barrier.

I'd rather they have to repair a wall than a driver. Let them tear the walls up.

Look to see some high speeds today, high is 50 in Indianapolis today.

Tomorrow, if the rain can hold off, the high is 56. Good high speed weather.
