so, where are the spectators. Again, like last weekend. Nobody is in the stands. Back in the 90ies My bro aj and my pal keith went to indy for the qualifying weekend. A number of times. The race would draw well over 300k back then. and the qualifying day would draw at least 200k. THis is by memory so someone can fact check me but in 95, the year penske didn't qualify the stands were full. And in 94 when they ran the trick lump. The stands were full. This is a shit show. someone explain to me what the deal is, please.

This is Penske not making it 95 bad for RLL. I know only one car is going home and it might not be any them but they just had no speed all day.

Graham's 34th place time was 3.3824 seconds slower over the 10 mile distance than the fastest car. Zero.8456 seconds per lap slower. Tight field anyway you want to cut it. Indy in reporting most things as MPH hide just how close things are on clock time.

Graham Rahal is going to win the 500 this year. Maybe - IF he makes the show.

Foyt hired a guy from Ganassi, they are blowing people away at Indy. RLL hired an ex-F1 guy as Tecnical Director for all of their cars. Do the math.

Lundgard - 236 into 1 and 233 into 3 aren't going to cut it.
