Dan Wheldon, #26 Klein Tools/Jim Beam Dallara/Honda/Firestone
        "The Klein Tools/Jim Beam car wasn't too bad today.  With my limited time on a road
course in an IndyCar, I'm still trying to perfect the setup that I'm comfortable with.  To tell you the
truth, we haven't quite gotten there yet.  The car definitely has a reasonable overall balance, but
we're just working on trying to find some more outright speed."
