TA Qualifying at Indy

did TA get screwed again in qualifying and only get one shot for Friday at Indy?

 

yep, the weather was off and on today.

 

Did any blown cars run in the 30's? or 20's?

 

Tad

The 2nd qualifying session got pulled.

I was told the 2nd qualifying session will be this morning, then there will be a third qualifying session tomorrow morning when first round was scheduled, then the first round will be late Sunday afternoon.

Weather conditions at 11am should be low 60's and partly cloudy.
I can see some really fast times today.

Fastest blown car I believe was Condo's 48, but Thacker, Haley, Hamelink didn't have stellar runs. I know Bowgren and Dreher have at least been low 40's cars at Chicago before; we may get one in the 30s today.

 

Thanks for the update and addititional info!

 

NOT!!!!!!!!! (so far the best in high .40's)
