The last race in this oval swing, IndyCar (and Star Mazda) goes to the Heartland of America, racing in Rusty Wallace's only good thing he did post-racing career: his track.

Hopefully this works out nicely: reduced downforce for Iowa.

Looked up the tv listings and the heat race will be shown tape delay at 7pm Saturday night followed by the Indy Lights race which will be shown live at 8pm which leads straight into the Indy Car race. All on NBC Sports Network

I <3 NBC Sports Network (apart from the fact that it's on a subscription plan that's far out of my reach..oh well, good thing there's streams and the official IndyCar channel).

Well if it worked in Texas then fingers crossed it should be fine in Iowa.

@ codename - so your barrage of emails to Indycar finally wore down the rules makers then? :p ;)

How long until the qualifying races? I assume the team have spare cars just in case? Be interesting to see how it works.

Heh, if only I knew the e-mail of the powers that be, things could be so different! :lol:

Seriously, I'd like to think it's just logic finally prevailing....we'll see....

And here's hoping that if that is the case and it proves successful (as we believe it should be) then other series **cough F1** will follow the lead...

Andretti led first practice: http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/100586

4.5 miles an hour quicker than last year's pole speed. :o
