Ricky Sanders Wins XGT, Lee Saunders Victorious in SGT, Chris Coffey Takes GT Once Again. ELKHART LAKE, Wis. (June 30, 2024) - The Trans Am Series presented by Pirelli race at Road America was one of attrition and consequences, with both mechanical failures and penalties ultimately affecting the outcome of the race. A four-time winner this year, Paul Menard led much of the 25-lap race after early contact took Chris Dyson out of contention. However, an avoidable-contact penalty moved Menard to second in the finishing order, resulting in 2023 CUBE 3 Architecture TA2 Series champion Brent Crews earning the victory, fighting back from engine issues and an eighth-place starting berth to win in his first-career TA start.

Arrow McLaren has been in the center of IndyCar silly season for the last few seasons, and 2024 isn’t a different story. The team has already dumped David Malukas and Theo Pourchaire while signing Nolan Siegel before July. Alexander Rossi is also expected to re-sign with Arrow McLaren; however, will this still come to fruition after the latest shocking report?
According to Tony Donohue, Christian Lungaard is rumored to join Arrow McLaren, with an announcement coming on Wednesday. Lungaard is a rising star in the IndyCar Series and drives for Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing. The 22-year-old driver would join McLaren with Hy-Vee as Arrow looks to scale back its sponsorship with the organization.
It’s unclear if Lungaard would join a fourth car or replace Rossi, as Siegel and Pato O’Ward are signed for the 2025 season. It would be a disappointing development for Rossi, who deserves a top ride in the IndyCar Series. Yet, Arrow McLaren isn’t new to making shocking decisions. Lungaard could be joining a top-tier IndyCar Series team, which should put the series on notice.

According to Shakey's website, this pizza parlor is only in California, North Carolina, and Washington state in the U.S. now. This was my family's go-to pizza joint when my father was stationed with the Air Force outside of Omaha, Nebraska. We liked it so much, that when we were transferred again, it was hopeful we'd find another one.
