What's Justin Carver's background other than driving for Carl Edwards in this race?

Re: Hoosier Hundred Car Count
 

....and will Tony Elliott be in the Ricky Nix 43?....sprntr??

Re: Hoosier Hundred Car Count
 

Hoosier Hundred?I thought it was the Hoosier twin 50s.Now instead of fuel and tire conservation we get a 50 lap parade then a red?What happened to all the strategy of running a Champ car on the miles?

Re: Hoosier Hundred Car Count
 

A few weeks ago Paul White told me that he was questionable about making it. It all depended on whether they got the car together, and he didn't sound very hopeful. But one never knows.

Re: Hoosier Hundred Car Count
 

It's going to be one busy week for Bobby Santos III. He's running Thursday night in the Hoosier 100 then Friday night at Stafford Springs CT in his modified ride and then back to Indy for the night before the 500?
So far this season he has a combined 2 wins 2 seconds and 1 tenth place finish in 5 races.
Maybe the Andretti's will need a new driver if DP keeps talking to the press. Hint, hint :31::31:

Re: Hoosier Hundred Car Count
 

The Hoosier Hundred is Friday. Bobby will be missing it to race Stafford in pursuit of the Mod Tour championship. Still a busy weekend...

Re: Hoosier Hundred Car Count
 

It doesn't matter, the whole division is a joke. Without being part of the IRL points they're nothing more than school buses. We need Helio, Danica etc. backing them in on the mile before they have any credibility.

Re: Hoosier Hundred Car Count
 

There could be no Hoosier Hundred like a few years ago and then everyone would ***** about how great it used to be, who cares what the new format is maybe it will be much more interesting, maybe it will suck all I know is it will work out for some of them and wont for others but I'll bet the few guys that are always contenders figure out a way to do it again. I'm pumped about the Indiana State Fairgrounds friday night myself if the promoter trying to spice it up is too much I guess he could've not invested any money in the prestigous event and it could fade into the sunset. sometimes I wonder if people just prefer to talk about the negative aspect of every topic on this board and most likely other events of life

Re: Hoosier Hundred Car Count
 

That's right, blame the fans. It couldn't be USAC and the promoters fault this once great event is fading away. Stupid decisions just like this are the reason the Silver Crown division is in trouble. Spend your money however you want and I'll spend mine how I like. I'll be at Gas City spending half the cash to see twice the show.

Re: Hoosier Hundred Car Count
 

Nice to see Jeff Swindell back.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. – Two time Hoosier Hundred winner Jeff Swindell will try to make it four wins at the historic Indiana State Fairgrounds Friday night driving for Carl Edwards/ RE Technologies Racing.

“It is awesome to be coming back for the Hoosier Hundred,” said Jeff Swindell. I have always had good luck there with the Silver Crown cars.”

Swindell won his first Silver Crown™ race at the Indiana State Fairgrounds in 1987. He won the Hoosier Hundred in 1991 and 1993. The Memphis native credits his first Silver Crown win to A.J. Foyt.

“I had just met A.J. earlier that month,” said Swindell. “Gary Bettenhausen at the time had made the Indianapolis 500 and his car owner for the 500 didn’t want him to run the race at the Indiana State Fairgrounds. The owner of his Silver Crown car was talking to A.J. Foyt on the phone and Foyt said “Well, I have got your driver right here.”

Jeff Swindell says at first Bettenhausen’s Silver Crown car owner was tentative about putting the inexperienced big car driver in a car. Swindell proved that A.J. Foyt and the car owners had made the right decision. Starting in the rear of the field, Jeff Swindell moved through his way up to the front, winning the 60-lap race. In the process, Swindell set a new track record for the 60-lap race, of 34:31.26 at a speed of 104.284 mph, which still stands to this day.

“That makes the Indy is more special to me because it was the way I got started running Silver Crown cars.”

Jeff Swindell would go on to win the Ted Horn 100, at DuQuoin in 1990 and the Hoosier Hundred in 1991 and 1993. He also finished third in points in 1987 and second in points in 1992. Swindell will pilot the No. 199 Roush / Yates Ford entry for the rest of the dirt races in the 2010 season. The Memphis, Tenn. native will be joined by teammates Justin Carver in the No. 991 Memphis Fence / Dyno Tech Racing Engines entry and Derek Hagar who will pilot the No. 91 Conrad Sand and Gravel / Dyno Tech car.

“It is good to be a teammate with a three time winner at the track,” said Hagar. “Hopefully I will be able to learn a lot from him and maybe even beat him to victory lane.”

“Ever since I was a child, I have watched the Indianapolis 500,” added Carver. “It is exciting to know you are running the same track on the championship car circuit as they were at one time.”

This year celebrates the 50th anniversary of A.J. Foyt’s initial Hoosier Hundred victory in 1960. Foyt has won the race a record six times.

Re: Hoosier Hundred Car Count
 

Very cool show shaping up... adding Jeff Swindell to the entry list.

Now we are well over thirty traditional USAC champ cars for the dirt mile at Indy

And I have to tell you guys, the mods at DuQuoin have really added to the quality of the show down there and they will only do the same at Indy.

I can see a ton of sprint car races from April to October, but the chance to see my favorite division on dirt miles only comes a few times a year. No way I would miss it

Re: Hoosier Hundred Car Count
 

Good job Kirk!!...and looks like Jeff Swindell is the lucky one ta fill the seat...and for the rest of the dirt shows this year!!....nice choice guys,see'n his credentials...also bein so close to the R.E. Shop!!...Ideal

Hey Stein,

Are you still going to have a cold one for me after the 51/49

Looking forward to meeting you and hearing your opinion of the new format.

Re: Hoosier Hundred Car Count
 

Should be a great night of racing with all these Silver Crown Cars!
Plus sounds like a big field of Mods coming too.

Re: Hoosier Hundred Car Count
 

How come nobody ever puts Dicky Gains in one of these cars?

Re: Hoosier Hundred Car Count
 

Gaines was in the #59 a couple of years ago. I agree, I think he would be a good choice.

does anybody know how the weather is lookin for tonight.

Re: Hoosier Hundred Car Count
 

The weather will be perfect for tonights race.

It should be a good event. I like tradition of 100 miles hence the name Hoosier Hundred but I'm looking forward to seeing how teams will work with the changes. Remember the race used to be 60 laps.

If you have the time after the race, stop by and talk with Jeff. There was so much I wanted to put into the release but couldent otherwise it would have been pages long. It is great to hear him talk and he has some neat stories to tell.

Have a safe drive and I will see you there tonight.

awesome one more question how much are tickets and do some stores still give away coupons for it.
