I thought that's what I just posted. hrug: edit: I apologize. It was another board

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

More:
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.
