I believe for orientation they make you run at certain speeds for a certain number of lapsI don't know what kind of leash they have on him at this stage, but it looks like he was running in the 208-209 range in the video posted.
Stole this from Twitter. Its very cool fans were actually there for this
Qualifying lap averages are back in excess of 230 these days (pole this year was a 234.2), but this is simply about putting on downforce, getting comfortable, and being approved to make an attempt next May. They’re not running trimmed out aero or with qualifying boost pressure. There were two other rookies who were in the 219 bracket yesterday and one cracked 220.What are normal qualifying times
I suspect the only briefing he gets on said flight to Daytona will be very bad news since something will have caused them to divert to Florida instead of North Carolina. Wild indeed.Just a wild guess but, my guess is that on the plane ride from Indy to Daytona, I feel certain he can be informed of pertinent information that was issued at the Drivers meeting.
What people think the drivers meeting is especially after a short track race thoughThe drivers meeting is nothing more than a PR deal now. During covid they had a video and that seemed to work just fine.
On another note couldn't they just do a YouTube video for anyone that would like to see it?

I’m so excited for this race. The main thing I hope Larson has a safe race and he doesn’t try any slide jobs.![]()

I know and borrowing some words from the great revman, I love it.Hendrick isn't fooling around it looks like, he is loading up the team with talent.
I would love that.This is Rick's strategy to get into open wheel full time.![]()
That might save Indycar.This is Rick's strategy to get into open wheel full time.![]()
How can he get away with this? No doubt the Felon or Jeffy greased the skids with NASCAR to allow Larson to get away with such an egregious infraction.
I think that horses head on a platter at the owners meeting did it.The Felon Corleone knows how to get things done.
Was it a Mustang?I think that horses head on a platter at the owners meeting did it.
