Copart-sponsored driver Louis Foster is getting ready for round 2 of the IndyCar Series this weekend at The Thermal Club, California.
It will be IndyCar’s first points-paying race at this venue and the 17-turn, 3.067-mile track contains plenty of twists and turns. But it’s a track that’s already familiar to Foster, having tested at the venue in November, giving him a useful advantage.
“Now I know the track, which is super helpful. I am able to attack the track from lap 1 without having to learn the circuit. We did some fuel saving as well during that test, so that I can also take that knowledge with me.”
