Lally Looking to Dominate
Auto racing star Andy Lally appear to be in a league of his own after today's first roud of Street Luge qualifying. Last years NASCAR Spint Cup Rookie of the Year and three time winner of the Daytona 24 Hour race posted a time more than two seconds faster than Kolby Parks who currently sits second. It remains to be seen if anyone can get close to Lally in today's second qualifying session. The rest of the field was bunched up a lot tighter. Following Parks was Christian Conaway in third, former world champion David Dean in fourth and Frank Williams in fifth. Today's final qualifying session will be broadcast live here at IGSAworldcup.com.
