ARCA: Foyt fastest in 2nd round qualifying
4 October 2000
Concord NC, 10-4-00 - Larry Foyt, son of 4-time Indy 500 winner AJ Foyt, was the BSR 2nd Round Fastest Qualifier here Tuesday at Lowe's Motor Speedway. The ARCA rookie posted a speed of 180.294 mph in the Harrah's Casino Pontiac ahead of Billy Venturini at 179.683. Interestingly enough, if Foyt would have qualified with that speed in 1st round, the Mooresville NC driver would have started 9th on the grid.
