The Marshall Pruett Podcast

“The Maxxum just always felt like a fight," Scott Pruett said when answering the question of the strangest car he raced. "You were always arm-wrestling the thing. Always.” The 1987 IMSA GTP creation, run by Roush Racing, looked unique, used a bunch of different engines, and it just didn't work, as the American racing legend tells The Marshall Pruett Podcast in a short and winding interview.

It's a packed new episode of The Week In IndyCar show following the first race of the year at Texas, with questions submitted from fans via social media. Listener Q&A begins at the 25m10s mark in the episode. Among the items covered: "Will we see a change to the impound rules for the next race? It seems that three guys had their races ruined by the fact that the IndyCar implemented special rules." "How much we should put into Ed Carpenter's comments after the race about Rinus VeeKay? Obviously, it wasn't a great weekend for Rinus and wasn't very pleased after what was a great run for him. How long do you think it will take for Rinus to build up Ed's trust in him again? "Has anyone researched whether the traction compound has ruined the Texas track for IndyCar for the long term, or whether it should be fine by next year? Would have been a really entertaining race if people could have passed, but it was brutal." "Following up on the discussion about the cancellation of Indy Lights for this year from last week, you mentioned that it looks like Indy Car was going to be putting pressure on IndyCar teams to get involved with Lights. Is your understanding that they are wanting them to field teams, and subsidize the cost for drivers to participate in the series, or simply field teams for paying drivers, like Andretti Autosport currently does? If the latter, how would that help the series with more entries, if the current demand for entries for paying drivers isn’t there already? All it would seem to do would shift from independent teams to Indy Car development teams and put the small teams out of business." "IndyCar drivers as Ninja Turtles: Who do you cast as each turtle?

It's a new episode of The Week In IndyCar show, with questions submitted from fans via social media. Listener Q&A begins at the 23m05s mark in the episode. Among the items covered: "Why did Firestone implement a very short tire stint limit before they even turned a wheel in Texas? Why not wait and see if maybe they can make the window bigger after practice." "McLaren has been admirable in saying that there would still be a place for Robbie Wickens when he comes back, but is that a realistic prospect when they are running two full-time cars and have a list of part-timers already in mind for next year?" "Now that the Indy Lights season has been cancelled, could any of those teams use their budgets/sponsorship dollars to run a car at Indy or another IndyCar race? Could one of the bigger teams lease them one of their backup cars for a one off run somewhere?" "What can you tell us about software in IndyCar? I know it's a general question, but #mepersonally working in IT and you (I believe) having a CS background, I always wonder what type of off-the-shelf or in-house software they run. Bonus points for using as many technical terms and acronyms as possible."

Among the items covered: "Ferrari is exploring joining IndyCar in 2022 when the new regulations kick in. What do you think this would look like? Do you see a scenario where they say, "we will join if we can build the exact displacement hybrid engine we want"? "We will join if we are allowed to develop our own chassis". Etc.? Surely this would make some other European manufacturers take another look at IndyCar as well?" "Hypothetically, if we only get a few races in and we can't finish the season, will IndyCar crown a champion for the 2020 season? Or will the season be extended to include the 2021 season for a 2020-2021 championship?" "Akin to what Porsche did with its 919 Evo at the Nurburgring and Spa, where they threw out the rule book and modified the car to go as fast as possible - what speeds could be achieved at IMS if an Indy Car team was able to modify a current Indy Car to go as fast as possible? "To what degree are IndyCar teams allowed to repair and maintain their engines without getting Chevy or Honda technical staff involved or sending the unit back to the supplier for repair?"

Do you think McLaren would consider fielding a car for Lando Norris for that race? I imagine sponsors are looking for more exposure any way they can get it and Lando is definitely a quarantine winner with the fans." "It seems like Simon Pagenaud is good at a lot of things but acting is not one of them. I can't help but cringe at what he did, taking out one of the most popular drivers in F1 whilst 10k+ viewers were watching Lando on Twitch is probably the worst thing he could do. Then Zak Brown tweeting out that he was surprised by what Simon did. Just a horrible look for Simon, his sponsors and the series. You and Miller had mentioned that Simon was being considered for a SPAM ride in 2021. Do you think the chances of that happening are still as strong as they once were or am I over analyzing something that happened in the virtual world?"
