The 2024 engine tests continued for a third day today with Chip Ganassi Racing’s Scott Dixon continuing to pound the pavement with Honda Performance Development’s 2.4-liter engine, and Will Power taking over the Penske-run Chevrolet 2.4-liter car from teammate Josef Newgarden.
Testing for these next-gen engines – currently running without the spec hybrid units they will utilize on their race debuts – is ‘closed door’. However, GM’s IndyCar program manager Rob Buckner was able to tell Motorsport.com that Tuesday was “another good day with the 2.4-liter. It’s been flawless for a new engine debut, and we’ve been able to work through all of our items.”
