Here it is I have made my Pre-Practice grid prediction for the “2011 Indianapolis 500 Mile Race”. This what quite challenging as there hasn’t been a single car on any oval nor less IMS but that kind of makes it fun too. I will make a 2nd grid prediction after Fast Friday which I am sure would be much more accurate and will include a pole speed. You are welcome to join me in making your prediction but there will be two pools to get in the pre-practice pool you have to summit your grid before opening day.
