Foyt Futility Thread for 6/27 thru 6/29

[pchall]

AJFore! is DFL at Richmond with a qualifying speed of 153.450 mph and has also hit the wall. Dixon is on the pole at 168.138.

More futility notes coming all weekend.

But AJ dun wun Indy 4 times so if'n he says the boy is ready, he's ready.

The boy is not all that bad, it's just he is too young and needs some time in a lower formula to learn a bit before running in the big show.

[DaveL]

Yes he is bad.

I'm astonished at why people think he's any good. His IPS title was meaningless. An inexperienced, good driver needs to be slowed down, not sped up to the point where he's going to be black flagged if he doesn't.

This kid would be outclassed in any... and I mean any SCCA Regional Formula Vee race.

He needs to spend about four or five years in jalopies, or "bombers".

[pchall]

He kept it off the wall for 126 laps...

I could too if I was running 12 MPH under the pace and was running my mirrors.

It is a slot car track, isn't it?
