Final preps before 500 made on Carb Day

SPEEDWAY, Ind. (WISH) — Carb Day gave drivers a final opportunity to fine tune their cars before the 100th running.

The one hour practice left many feeling good about their final runs.

Carb Day brought out quite the crowd Friday and a lot of the drivers are saying they are very confident that they’ll be able to give these fans a competitive show come Sunday.

And even though some have won this race before, Helio Castroneves says each time he competes in the 500, the track feels different.

One thing is for sure: come Sunday, the checkered flag is anyone’s to take.
