Bottom post of the previous page:

There's some other series using electrics off-road I think? Extreme E is the same. Too much new stuff to dilute interest I reckon.

I feel bad for the poor sod on their social media team who had to put that graphic together, searching out victory lane pics from those 200 wins.

I'd be stunned in an organisation as anal as Penske doesn't have a specifically tagged image library in the cloud. Easy pickings.

If they don't, then hey Roger, this is my bread and butter - happy to join your marketing team.

Not knockin' 'em but they're not the greatest on road courses. And that stupid extra chicane before the pits is assinine.

No sooner do they f up on the re-start....

No name, road course hired gun, Andy Lally is a solid, reliable rc driver and he's showing it here. He's been around mostly in lower tiers for quite a while.

edit: I forgot, he did a year (2011) in Cup for Kevin Buckler, who owned and ran TRG (The Racers Group) Porsches in IMSA and Grand Am for years.

I am very sorry if you find my posts long and boring, I like to type and often go off on a tangent.

Andy Lally won rookie of the year in the cup series that year, mainly because there was zero competition. 2010-2012 was horrible for new talent.
