Carpenter sure ECR can fight for Indy 500 win in any circumstance

As usual, the Ed Carpenter Racing-Chevrolets have qualified well for the 106th running of the Indy 500, with Rinus VeeKay and Carpenter himself lining up third and fourth respectively on the grid. And Carpenter, a three-time pole-winner, for this race, said that he’s not concerned what type of track conditions they’ll have for the race, just as long as his team makes the right calls in terms of setup.

“I try not to overly worry about what it’s going to be like, more be prepared for whatever the day brings,” said the 41-year-old. “I know as a team we’re prepared for all conditions, we’ve been pretty strong in all conditions, and so it comes down to making the right decision for race day. I think we’ll be able to fight in any of the conditions."
