Evidently the video is private; have to be friends with the person the video is on

I didn't see this mentioned in the thread, but there was a bad incident in one of the vintage cars during Saturday's Legends Day festivities. The driver, Cody Donahue, had some fractures in his legs when he hit the Turn 2 wall head-on in a privately-owned 1967 Roger McCluskey Eagle:

In a group with someone else that was on-track during that session, according to him apparently the throttle got hung

I find amusing how they find a way to pass on the outside. Some years ago passing on the outside at indy was certain crash

Lap 1, green track maybe

Anyway, looked like such a new surface that it didn't rubber up that much, so the main line wasn't all that much faster. Normally its the opposite for a new track.

Anyone know when the last time a Menards sponsored car won the 500? It must've been back in the IRL days...

This was the first time that Menards won the 500 as a primary sponsor

A car with Menards primary sponsorship hasn't won the race till this year despite many tries and many good runs for years and years.
