Welcome to the NTT IndyCar Series 2022 Thread! Same mediocre taste, different thread ID! This is the last year of the 2.2L TTV6 engine formula, before they bump displacement to 2.4L and add a hybrid starter/generator, so no more calling for a truck when it's a simple spin n' stall! For this year though, it should be action packed, with lots of championship contenders on the line.

The Road to Indy
IndyCar features the Road to Indy ladder system, which provides a defined path for up-and-coming open-wheel racers to reach the top. Several IndyCar teams run teams in the lower series as well. Many of these series race on the same weekend as IndyCar as support races.

- IndyCar Minor Leagues, many of the current IndyCar drivers are Indy Lights graduates.




- Bottom rung of the ladder, usually first step after pro-karting.

USAC Silver Crown / Midgets - While not officially part of the Road to Indy Ladder, many current and former open wheel drivers got their start in sprint cars. Support your local dirt track!!!

who cares twitter is terrible but it's not hard to find drivers/teams

no seriously they can't push the cars out of the pits anymore this is bullshit

quote:

Rule 7.6.10 brings an unexpected end to a practice that’s been seen since 1911 with the first Indy 500: Unless approved by IndyCar, crew members are not permitted to physically assist with the Car’s exit from the Pit Box.

I mean its probably good for safety but still.

Oh and St. Pete is this weekend, hell yeah!
