[Madmaxfan2]

Rear wing wickerbills are on 90deg vertical so AJeyevee can drive it, stuck to the ground. ah the foytility of it all.

[guido]

I asked my daughter and she said POS means " piece of s***", how did they get 22 cars anyway?

[JohnHKart]

I'm enforcing my "No IrL" rule finally....(until Fontana or Texas) And you know what? Life is sweet without that rubbish! So please post all the winners and losers here, because I won't be watching. It's the first time (other than selected races like Nazareth and Japan) I've been IRL free since our cable company temporarily dropped Fox Sports in 1998, (and I didn't miss it then either.)

I saw Gaylio smacked the wall. Or was it Sammich?

Just caught some highlights during happy hour.

Carpenter crashed out and will be DFL.

Big show of hands of the people surprised by this.

[pchall]

Race notes from IRL T&S:

Mr. Ed tested his attenuator on lap 60 to get DFL.

AJ4 is now last among those still running.

[DaveL]

IV done had a piece a' the rear wing come 'part. So one a AJ's boys simply bent the darn thang 'till it come off and done slapped some tape on it. If'n AJ says that's better than simply boltin' a new wing on, then that's the best way of doin' it.

See, cuz AJ done won Indy 4 times.

My mom saw that and was like "thats stupid... yeah I wanna go 180 mph with one of my aerodynamic devices bent off and some tape holding it together"
:rofl:

[pchall]

L173 AJ4 slows and stops on the apron.

L174 The apron strings are tied to his car and he is towed into the pits.

AJ4 ends up in 16th place and ten laps down.

So endeth this weekend's Futility.

[Ziggy]

What was worse, on that last pit stop the rear wing was seriously deranged. He hit something, and not a word was said about it. Dont know if he rejoined the fray, but that car had backed into something
