2015: The 99th ARCSOA Indianapolis 500

It's the most famous open wheel race in the world! The Indianapolis 500! 46 drivers have arrived at Indianapolis with one goal: Victory and Glory. Never before until this year has ARCSOA held such a potential all star cast that is in contention to run and possibly win the Indianapolis 500. It's the last year before the all important 100th running, which will be sure something.....I hope. Anyways, qualifiers are set to begin this weekend.

-
Qualifying Stage

2 groups of 23 drivers will participate in a 1 hour long qualifying session, the top 16 drivers with the best qualifying times will move on to the Indy 500.

Group 1 Results




Group 2 Results

LCQ Results (Top 4 Advance, Everyone Else Is Going Home)

Nick: Had a great showing! 10th on the board while my team-mates take 3rd and 6th!
Kassandra: ..made it in.

NVM what I said here

Pericles: "So Frustrating! We got a top 5, but we really should have won that race. I would have cut Amy's Lead even more. Probably even take it, congrats to Sandfer. My team really struggled, Cody and Ian both had problems."

Pericles:" Oh god, Collins!" *Jumps into Mustang and Speeds to Hospital*

J. Silverfox: "From what my close friends in the ARCSOA medical staff have told me, he's in the hospital and apparently they've called his family down to the hospital. Apparently all drivers, personnel, and media members are barred from entering the hospital. Doesn't sound good."

Kenny Myatt: I love open wheel racing, but that was bad.
