NASCAR Drivers At Indy - Fans Love It



by Steve Zautke

One may be surprised at all the NASCAR drivers that have competed in the Indianapolis 500, or perhaps is it "500" drivers that have also driven in NASCAR?

A day by day synopsis of the action and activities at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway leading up to the 2013 Indianapolis 500 on Sunday, May 26.


With just thirty-five cars to vie for starting spots in the 500 over this weekend, there will be more happy faces than sad ones when time trials end on Sunday at 6:00pm.


On a stormy Spring day in Central Indiana, something truly amazing took place at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway: a single car team, with a Hoosier driver raised on the dirt tracks of the Mid-west, captured the Pole Position for the 97th Indy 500!


It's labeled "Fast Friday", but a monsoon thunderstorm early in the afternoon brought "Wet Friday" to a screeching halt with three Andretti Autosport cars sitting on top of the week's combined speed chart.
