    Target Chip Ganassi Racing Indianapolis 500 Day-End Report
    Pole Day Qualifying for the IZOD IndyCar Series at Indianapolis Motor Speedway

    P3 Carlos Munoz (No.26 Chevrolet) at 228.342 mph
    P16 Scott Dixon (No.9 Honda) at 226.158 mph
    P17 Dario Franchitti (No.10 Honda) at 226.069 mph

    TCGR Quoteboard

    Dario Franchitti:  “This morning we felt we had a good balance and reasonable speed in the Target car.  But then when it came time to do it for real the balance and the grip went away in a hurry for some reason.  I think all in all we lost over a mile an hour throughout the run which is way too inconsistent.  I spoke to Scott after his run and it sounded very familiar in terms of how the balance went off.  We’re just .1 of a mile an hour apart so you can’t get much closer than that I guess.  Tomorrow we’re going to practice some race things and push Honda to come up with some improvements so we can get where we need to be for the race weekend.” Read More
