Pippa Mann will Make Izod IndyCar Debut at the 100th Anniversary Indy 500 May 29, 2011

     I’m happy to report that Pippa Mann has leaped to the Izod IndyCar Series and she has done it in a big way by qualifying for this year’s Indy 500. The 27 year old Ipswich, England native will drive the No. 36 car for Conquest Racing. Bump Day tested patience as teams not only battled each other’s times, but they had to deal with difficult weather as well. Pippa managed to turn a 223.936 time before rain caused a delay. That time earned her a spot in the starting field for the Indy 500. Although the rain cleared and qualifying continued, Pippa’s time was good enough that she did not have to go back out on the track and defend it. She will start 32nd in the field when the 100th Anniversary Indy 500 starts on May 29, 2011 at 12:00 pm EST.
