    The earliest I can find in print of IMS officially using the term "Fast Friday" for the day before pole day is 1996. But the term was used loosely for quite some time before that.

    I can forgive him for his Safer barrier comments but not this.
    There is only one "Fast Friday".
    Wish he would keep to his original sayings like boogity, boogity or however you spell it.

    First trip to the Temple of Speed this year.
    I'm not sure darrel is bright enough to make stuff up on his own. I suspect he stole "boogity3" from someone in a bar, while the rest is stuff written by his staff and shoved in front of him just before a broadcast.

    Hey, Indycar has thrown away its legacy.

    Nice of DW and crew to keep the memory alive I think.

    I disagree completely with that.
