We have 2 full fields and are ready to go.

I will draw this coming Sunday night (*provided the weather cooperates) so that everyone knows where they stand for race day.

The weather may have something to say about it, Indianapolis is looking at rain 80% Saturday and 90% on Sunday.  A source indicated to me today that a condensed qualifying format will be deployed Monday if needed to get the starting order set.  I will draw as soon as I have an official field.

Looking forward to this one as it should be fun.  I hope you all tune in on race day, should be a great one as 1-32 of the cars have practiced and they are all within about a mile and half per hour of each other.  1 car has not practiced yet, but should hit the yard of bricks tomorrow (Wednesday).  The race starts 12:19 pm Eastern time on May 28th, 2017 but all of the hoopla begins on TV 11 am Eastern.

Once the field is set, I will also update the odds (since starting position matters).

Hope you guys enjoy the contest.

Yeah, we had a rockin time on the herf last night and was able to snag the last two members.  Kent and Bruce were up to their usual antics, putting pressure on people to join in the fun.   :biggrin:

Yeah, and it was a completely blind pill draw.  I have never had a close repeat like this in prior years doing this with my buddies.
