In the team's first Indy Pro Series qualifying attempt, Chris Festa sets the fastest lap time to earn his first career pole.
-The Indy Pro race will take place Saturday at 12:30 pm EDT
Chris Festa-no.9 Indy Pro Series car
Starting position: 1st
"It's a great thing. The team is starting out for the first time, so to come out and get a pole is just a really good thing. They've worked so hard over the winter. I'm just so proud to be a part of this team. When somebody like Chip Ganassi hires you to drive his car, it definitely builds your ego a little bit, but I don't want it to get too big because that's when things start happening. We ran race setup in the session this morning, and we can put the car anywhere we wanted, so we're feeling very confident. We're looking forward to tomorrow."
Pablo Perez-no.10 Indy Pro Series car
Starting position: 8th
