indyskinsfan Posted May 20, 2002 Share Posted May 20, 2002 "BUMP DAY" The Rookie of the Year for 1999 (Beechler) didn't qualify for this year's Indy 500. 9 Rookies made it and there are 6 former Indy 500 winners in this year's field. Andretti has improved his time for qualification, so look out! The first Afro-American in 9 years has qualified for the Indy 500 (Geore Mack - #510) Yes, old Billy Boat hung in there to qualify as the 32nd driver, but it was a nailbiter till time expired and help from Mother Nature - It poured down rain (thus avoiding being a bump day casualty) :laugh: This could be one of the more exciting 500's in years!
