@UrinatingTree Speaking of moves that induce regret, over in IndyCar, Scott Dixon is moving from Ganassi to McLaren for 2027. I almost hope he wins the title next year to cement the Tom Brady comparisons.

Well that explains why we finished second last night. 🤔

@OKTornadoDB That was a pretty cone watching it from I-40, shame it had to be a killer.

[SPD17 @SPD17]

@Indycar_Wxman I still wish I had an RV and a spot trackside to park it at.

Then again, I used to go storm chasing and severe weather thrills me.

@racefansdotnet IndyCar provides the obvious solution. Split the groups, each teams car with the florescent stripes goes out in group 1, the others go out in group 2, top five of each advance to the final round.

@champwebdotnet They still don't need to:
1) Close the pits and thus provide massive artificial advantage to the undercut.
2) Take so long on minor incident yellows.

[SPD17 @SPD17]

@champwebdotnet That should've been a drive through for the 3.

[SPD17 @SPD17]

@DLand91 Get rid of the wave around, and aside from a hard cap, let boost be set by the driver.

[SPD17 @SPD17]

@RCritic20 @500Indy1911 Delete the chicane and reverse the direction. There, fixed.

@dabfordale It's sad how far we've fallen

It’s imperative that we revert to STANDARD, not Daylight time, for two reasons, one of which you may have never considered.

You know the first: solar noon is closest to 12 o’clock all year. That means an equal number of hours before and after noon each day.

This also means earlier sunrises which are significantly better for establishing a healthy circadian rhythm.

The second reason is that nearly ONE THIRD of US counties are in the wrong timezone.

A significant swath of the country isn’t only an artificial hour ahead because of daylight time… but TWO HOURS ahead of true solar time.

Year-round daylight time, especially without recalibrating time zones, would establish this error permanently, affecting millions of Americans.

We should be letting the Sun dictate the day the way God made it. Arbitrary, artificial tampering would be worse for us all.

Fix the time zones and affix standard time.

@Wijntje80 @MV33Racing Some of us remember James Hunt.

@champwebdotnet A final lap and finish to outperform 1992 of all Lap 200's, no matter what you can say about the rest of the race. 0.0233? Wow!

[MurderHawk @MurderHawk500]

FROMG! 😳

[SPD17 @SPD17]

@tonydindy Not even showing up on radar that close. The shower only dropped 0.01" on Indianapolis/Hendrick County over an 11min shower.

[SPD17 @SPD17]

@IndyCar @IMS Having been watching the radar since morning, stopping this early is ridiculous. Could've got 300-350 miles before the showers hit.

[SPD17 @SPD17]

@Indycar_Wxman Oooh, looks like the upstream part has dissipated!

[SPD17 @SPD17]

@Indycar_Wxman Got that shower coming up though

[SPD17 @SPD17]

@Indycar_Wxman What are the chances the early showers miss, and we get a dry start, but are waiting on storms?
