Thanks for the Report from Indy Mr. Larry and Mrs. Patsy! There are almost 20,000 views for the thread.
That is outstanding. I am probably 100 or so of those.

This is great thankyou Patsy for all the updates.

Don't know much more than earlier. I want to thank Mr. Larise (sp?) for the wonderful jambayla, pork chops and sausages for dinner. These guys really know how to cook and party. Complete with disco ball, music, fog and bubbles. They are pitted behind us so it's a good thing we don't have to do anything tomorrow. I doubt we get much sleep. It's cool enough to turn off the generator and sleep with the windows open, but that probably won't be possible. Anyway, the food and hospitality were great.
Went down to congratulate Steve Wann and John Shaul. They both did a great job in class. And neither have to tear down. Talked to Buckner also. He has to pull a piston. Edmond Richardson said he only has to pull a head. He did not win class either. Looks like this year they did not get just class winners. I think that is good. I will make a report after we go over to the barn in the morning. Looks like the bump right now is Welker at -.914. But that all depends on how teardown goes.
More tomorrow.

How about john wining A/SA and steve winning E/SA two very hard,and smart working people. Now if I can only get past the semi's I think I may have something for both of them, a handshake and a nice cool bottle of water. Great job by both.

The Buick is on a temporary hiatis. Hopefully it will be back out soon.

Re: Live from Indy!!!
 

What does "class win" pay?
Inquiring minds want to know.
And by the way, thanks for the reports and updates. It's not as good as being there but it's better than we could hope for.

Re: Live from Indy!!!
 

quick question, how are the rd 1 bye runs being determined for the class elims. I thought it was the best qualified car but I see that isn't the case here.

Re: Live from Indy!!!
 

As far as bye runs for class, it usually depends on what the racers agree on. Sometimes it's lowest qualifier, sometimes its a coin toss. Theres nothing really engraved in stone.
