Episode Details

IndyCar’s future is roaring into view as the Dallara IR28, powered by a 2.4L twin-turbo V6, prepares for its first test laps in the next two weeks—likely before August 9th. With a packed racing calendar from August through September, the team’s keeping test details under wraps, but Sebring or Indy Road Course are rumored spots. The initial focus? Basic car functions—acceleration, braking, shifting, turning—before diving into suspension, bodywork, and electronics. Once systems pass, rigorous validation begins: tweak, test, repeat, until every component sings in harmony. Mass production of 100+ cars hinges on this. The engine? Already tested by Chevy and Honda. The hybrid? Not yet—ballast will stand in until it’s ready.
