That's alright, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery....

After being disqualified the night before, Arie Luyendyk returned to the track on the second day of time trials. He set track records on all four laps.[22]
Lap 1: 38.097 seconds, 236.239 mph (new 1-lap track record)
Lap 2: 37.983 seconds, 236.948 mph (new 1-lap track record)
Lap 3: 37.933 seconds, 237.260 mph (new 1-lap track record)
Lap 4: 37.895 seconds, 237.498 mph (all-time 1-lap track record)
Total- 2:31.908, 236.986 mph (all-time 4-lap track record)
Luyendyk's run made him the fastest qualifier in the field, however, as a second-day qualifier, he was forced to line up 20th (behind the first-day qualifiers). Luyendyk's one and four lap track records still stand
Alaso, unofficial because it was just practice, but everyone's clocks confirmed, his 239.260 stands as fastes ever lap.
