-.879 for stock with 141 entered. I could be wrong.

Re: Indy 2013
 

Larry I am with you think the bump will be that or higher don't no if the car count will be that high. But with the weather we have been having it could be really fast 52 degrees right now where I live and has been cooler all August

Re: Indy 2013
 

Been watching entries as I thought I might use the rain-out waiver, but ain't gonna happen. A couple of days ago with less entries I was trying to guess bump, as I would be about the same as last year at .722 under (#128 & #129 me)

With about 118 entries when I did this, it had 16 entered that fell below me. Of those 6, they were within .07, the last 6 were about .2 off.....throwing out weather conditions, I was guessing that the bump will be .687

Take out breakage, hemis that leave and a final entry of 142 and it will be all run

Jeff, you asked...there ya go

I certainly enjoyed the experience (bucket list thingy) even with all the rain. A great memory

Re: Indy 2013
 

I did my best at counting pre 1990 cars entered at Indy, I came up with 54, which equals 41.8% of the field of 129. It amazing how quickly the newer cars took over the average of the field. At 58.1% and possibly growing. It seems that the factory race cars are really getting a big bite out of the sportsman ranks. The reason that I picked pre 1990 is because they were primarily computer controlled cars after that point. I know that all the cars are not factory built, but there is quite a few of them.

Stock-.82 and Superstock-.78 low car count so far.

Re: Indy 2013
 

138 & 129. Field is set. Gonna be a bump. What's the bump gonna be. FS cars should move the bump up in stock, depending on who has the fortitude to get into heads-up racing.

It is like the Hemi cars, Indy brings them all out, other than Indy, they are not as big of a percentage of the fields(copos drag paks and cobra jets)

Re: Indy 2013
 

About 150 each class. What's the bump? Who get's thrown out in the barn? Will it fill up? Inquiring minds want to know.

Re: Indy 2013
 

I would go to pre 2008. You shouldn't be throwing out the LT1, LS1 combos. They were street cars!

Re: Indy 2013
 

With only a week out man there surly isn't a lot of trash talking going. This could be a good sign or bad!! Come on somebody needs to shed a little light on the weeks festivities. Who's going to the poll in stock and super stock and which will be the best class to watch???
