Target Chip Ganassi Racing teammates Dario Franchitti and Scott Dixon hit speeds of 170 mph during MoveThatBlock.com INDY 225 practice sessions and wrapped up the day first and second on the speed chart. Franchitti, who will pilot the No. 10 Nikon car Sunday, led the way turning a lap time of 21.566 seconds at 171.099 mph.
“I think that qualifying is going to be a huge factor this weekend,” said Franchitti. “Right now the track is about one and a half lanes. So you can pass, but it is going to be difficult. Starting up front will be important. If you have a car that can use both lanes on Sunday you will be in a position to win.”
