Sting Ray Robb is one of three NTT INDYCAR SERIES drivers who will experience racing at Texas Motor Speedway for the first time next weekend. Robb said it took him a half-dozen laps to get the nerve to test the limits of the car. Robb said the lateral push on his body in the corners, which reached 4 Gs, was more sustained than he expected. Robb said his point of emphasis was hitting the turn-in location in Turn 1. “Setting your eyesight up the road is a big focus (at Texas) because the (increased) speed is something you have to get used to,” he said. “I think that’s a trick question because I don’t think any (rookie) is ever ready to race there,” he said.
