The practice would see a hard accident about 30 minutes in that collected the frontrunner. Kyle Law nudged Noah Kim going into turn 3, collecting AJ Jones and the TJ Ball. Hierjel Arvin Alonso and Jake Thomas both plowed into Jones' car several seconds after the crash, forcing him into a backup.
"It's disappointing that everyone's being so aggressive in a practice run, but the size of the track doesn't surprise me for where it's happening," #4 crew chief Everette Miles said. "But we know the best setup for our car now, and if that can briefly top the board, our backup should be that quick as well."
Law also turned Ball in the entrance to turn 3 with about 20 minutes left in the session, but his car was undamaged. Law ended up involved in all three notable incidents this session and was last on the speed charts.
The session was a good testing opportunity for teams, who found that speed actually came in with a little heat and wear on the tires. Here's the top times for the first laps on the track: 1) Anthony Lopez - 17.914 (225 laps) 2) TJ Ball - 17.931 (224) 3) Austin Rogers - 17.942 (229) 4) Conor Mays - 17.958 (231) 5) Chase Baldwin - 17.989 (212) 6) Chris Harley - 17.994 (235) 7) AJ Jones - 18.005 (229) 8) Ross Kispin (i) - 18.010 (224) T9) Griffin Lynn - 18.019 (238) T9) Justin Rodeback - 18.019 (223) Comments are closed.
