Scott Victorious here at the Milwaukee miles such a historic place for the NTT Indie Car Series and now you get to add your name to those history books how were you able to deal with the unpredictability of this race that was like the most fun race I've had in indie car it was a blast um so happy fav R of the gallager Chevy like we just uh we just stuck with it and um it wasn't quite good at the start the car and then we just tuned her up and it was awesome so a lot better in traffic today which helped a lot um credit to Colton and all the races out they were had a blast racing each other and the 21 car their pit crew they uh they helped me a lot in some exchanges helping me get into the pit box and stuff so big thanks to team Chevy Chevy and that that teamwork that we have and uh yeah burn the house down it's awesome I'm pumped what does this win signify for this team uh just tenacity I guess in some ways you know we work hard um our car wasn't great last night I did a terrible job yesterday and uh we really worked hard on it I hardly slept last night honestly I got like 4 and a half hours sleep just because I was just like so stressed about like what I did wrong and what I could do bit better and just really lucky to have this group you know and and we'll just keep working and um hopefully you know that's all we can do is win races from now on so we'll just have fun a win created out of hard work Scott mcglaughlin is Victorious here at the Milwaukee Mile Dylan willp power rebounded to 10th after an eventful day let's start with the spin on the restart what happened there yeah I was like a faster than normal restart or maybe it's cuz I was starting back there and I I was in second gear just oh man caught me by surprise did not expect that I was really happy to keep it off the wall and I get hit hit by anyone and um yeah we lost a LP changing that Wing so I know how dangerous the wing was but oh man yeah that was close huh well and you just said the points set at 33 I was able to actually bump it crazily uh yeah long shot now yeah God gave us a chance there and kind of Let It Go but um that's that's a season man you just can't have those mistakes um you know it's going to be a big hectic on those restarts and we're back there so maybe it would have been better to stay out I don't know damage was definitely minimized today but going forward how do you feel heading into Nashville um I'm a bit sad and disappointed today um we just uh couldn't really do anything we tried everything to try and not lose many laps um but uh yeah was out of my control or the team's control or uh HRC control so um yeah it's a sport it is what it is uh but we tried everything we we're getting happier happier um getting more points one point one more point one more point so um yeah it was not a great day but uh could have been a l worse could have been a little better obviously but um yeah on to Nashville on to Nashville Dylan Scott Dixon finishes in the second spot on the weekend where he made his 400 career start now the all-time Podium finisher record holder so had a shot there at the end what more did you need maybe on that restart to to track down the three yeah it was tough I think had had gone you know a few more laps it looked like he was starting to burn his fronts off a little bit but uh congrats to to mlin obviously pretty sweet to have a kiwi2 there uh huge thanks to everybody in the pnt bag number n the pit stops were were on point and uh you know Honda uh always enjoy to drive so that was fun out there but um yeah you know it's uh yesterday was a mass Friday uh qualifying on Saturday was uh just put us in a big hole so to come from 17th we just kept moving up all day and uh had really good runs going so yeah just one more to been cool how crucial were the restarts just with the kind of the way the track was and the options that were presented when it did get cleaned off up there I will say once you got to the front the restarts were a lot easier you just you know sometimes with lap traffic and they were having a bad day uh you just didn't know where to go and then you get crowded everybody would get slowed up so you know a lot more fun when you could just kind of race hard at the front but uh yeah staying out of trouble uh as we saw a lot of trouble today obviously uh glad Alex didn't lose too many points it could have been a dreadful day for for him and the team uh 33 points that's still a great lead and hopefully chick and racing Can Come Away with another championship yeah not a bad day for the CGR guys for sure Scott Dixon goes to the second spot today passed a lot of cars it seems like but how would you evaluate the day yeah first of all big credit to the 28 Delaware life crew you know we had a big crash yesterday three out of four corners of the car were broken new floor body workor and no no practice today you know us an insta lap so it was tough to get the car dialed in but they did a tremendous job the race itself really fun a lot of action out there and it's today and yesterday is indic car racing at its best you know short over racing you know a lot of restart car starts us still a lot of action so I I really enjoyed to see so much fans here and hopefully people behind the TVs were enjoying it as well because it was really fun out there yeah how much fun is it and how stressful is it just trying to make sure you don't get hit you don't the restarts were chaotic it seemed like there was a lot going on all 250 laps yeah it was action all the way through for me at least so it was really fun and then yeah in the end there hunting down Rosy and getting a outside pass on the last lap for for a top five that's a it's a pretty good feeling actually and my birthday is tomorrow so it was early birthday press and that the top five that's right happy birthday thanks Marcus hi folks Lee DIY from NBC Sports here if you truly enjoyed what you just watched you
