I have nothing against your friend and my comments aren't meant in a negative manner... but that is the reason I don't like pill draws for starting position in heat races.
A driver shows up with not a lot of experience and then first night out he's starting in front of some of the best drivers in Indiana. In many cases the guys drive right around him with no issues but I've seen many crashes happen during heat races because the field got all bunched up at the start.
The good news is they are qualifying tonight so the #1 pill isn't that big of an issue. I wish your friend good luck in his first nonwing race!
I hope everyone enjoys the race tonight!! Thanks for whatever updates you can provide... I will be following closely.
