Fast Cars Fast Girls React to IndyCar’s IR-28 Debut Test Hosts Abby Meyer and Sara Proctor recap seeing IndyCar’s new IR-28 chassis test at Indianapolis, praising its looks, sound, and sleeker aeroscreen integration, plus improved ventilation and the return of working LED panels. They note the rollout was fan-friendly and free despite rumors, thank the cross-team mechanics who volunteered a weekend to support the IndyCar/Dallara-run test, and describe rainy conditions and strong fan turnout. Alexander Rossi and Alex Palou tested the car (Rossi Saturday, Palou Sunday), both smiling and giving positive feedback; the car ran 71 total laps on the road course, with no more testing until September due to August’s schedule. They mention rumors of possible power steering, excitement to see the oval version and potential record speeds, plug their appearance on the IndyCar Dad podcast, and promote their social channels and “Trivia Tuesdays.”}
