While we would like to participate - I think given normal Indy conditions a 9.40 ET would be a respectable run for us

That would be only .30 under the 9.70 index and will not make the field

The 9.70 is the same as AAA/SA index

We just ran at Bakersfield a few weeks ago and ran a best of 9.39 - with us as light as we can get (3525) - I was told by an expert (Phil Mandella) that is what we will run at INDY

Given the weight breaks - 10.20 would be way more realistic - only a couple of the CJs might be able to run a second under - none of the V10s - and none of the V8s

No sense going if we can not make the show
