Due to forecasted rain and cold temperatures, Sunday’s 70th Anniversary Hoosier Hundred at Lucas Oil Indianapolis Raceway Park has been postponed to Friday, May 26 – joining the Carb Night Classic presented by Protective Insurance.
As the USAC Silver Crown Series was previously scheduled to run on Carb Night, the Hoosier Hundred will now become a points-paying Silver Crown race and remain at the 100-mile, 146-lap distance, featuring a winner’s share of $25,000 and a total purse of $92,000.
IRP will also offer a one-hour test session on May 25 from 7:30pm – 8:30pm (contingent on the Road to Indy practice/qualifying not running long). This allows teams to get a shot at the track prior to the event the following day.Â
The race will return after a two-year hiatus, with the most recent winner being NASCAR Cup Series champion Kyle Larson in 2020.
