The Start&Parks for the 2011 Quaker State 400 at Kentucky Speedway make their Qualifying runs. Qualifying was rained out halfway through, so the field was set by practice speeds. You could call this "Phantom" qualifying.

Hey! Looks like you were able to find video of the Robby Gordon's 77 Car! Awesome!

Man I miss when we had cars going home, it actually made Qualifying worth tuning into to see who made and missed the field, it was a race within the race. Now it’s really only the 500 that has cars miss the show

Scott Riggs looks more like his son than Layne looks like him ! 😅😂 I miss the 81 car

@vortexchaos70 Ай бұрын

Well, Riggs did end up making the field. Just not the way he wanted to.

I didn’t know Scott Riggs drove the 81 car. I think it was Whitney Motorsports.

That 81 car was Whitney Motorsports's second car alongside the primary 46 car...

@@dianeadkins-diorio1783 Correct, Scott Riggs and JJ Yeley were really talented drivers. Those small funded start and parks teams are pretty interesting and seeing those kinda teams try to qualify on time to make the race against funded teams that are either out of the top 35 or in the Top 35. The 7 and the 77 had a beautiful paint scheme. It was mostly when Robby Gordon was still an owner and driver for that team it was him and another driver whether it was PJ Jones or Scott Wimmer or whoever was driving the second entry.

@@connorritchie973 that 77 car for RGM began life in 2007 as the 77 for when Robby tried to field Marcos Ambrose at "Watkins Lynn" only for qualifying to be rained out; in 2009 that car ran Sonoma and "Watkins Lynn" as the 04 and attempted one other race that year but DNQ; in 2010 the car number changed to 07 and attempted not only the two road courses but numerous others throughout the second half of the season; in 2011 the 77 came back after Penske shut down their 77 team, and that year the 77 became a popular number late in the season after Dan Wheldon was killed in an IndyCar crash at Las Vegas (altogether that year three different teams ran the number for part-time teams)

You can blame the old and stupid “Top 35” rule

@sportstrap4285 Ай бұрын

@@IanTheMotorsportsMan_YTeh I think the Top 35 rule was fine, it kept full timers from missing the show cause they spun or had something go wrong on their run

@IanTheMotorsportsMan_YT Ай бұрын

@@sportstrap4285 that’s the best part of not having a Top 35 rule. Even the best drivers can struggle to make the show. Just like the Chili Bowl and the Indy 500

@@IanTheMotorsportsMan_YTBad for the health of the sport when your fully funded cars get bumped by guys that park it after a few laps. That’s why Indy will likely no longer have a bump day amongst the full field, and rather it just being the maybe 8 or so open cars that will be in the 2025 Indy 500. That’s only if this Indycar charter system gets the green light.

Man, we'd have this again, to a point, if they got rid of the stupid charters.

The fascination that NASCAR fans have with slow cars is quite incredible

@bwtmagnesiumwater Ай бұрын

Bro ikr the underfunds are quite literally satisfying to look at and if you look at them they don’t even look so slow they run near 9000 rpm

@sportstrap4285 Ай бұрын

It’s because a lot of these guys were regular dudes, maybe they had a little more money than us but not much, they were just out there living the dream trying to get better and sometimes they do (see Front Row Motorsports)
