Time Trials Scheduled Saturday

Five veteran drivers who have earned the pole position for an Indianapolis 500-mile race on ©ne or more previous occasions at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway are among the leading contenders for similar honors this year in time trials starting Saturday morning at 11 o'clock. They are A.J. Foyt and Mario Andretti, both two time “pole” winners: the Unser brothers, Al and Bobby; and Johnny Rutherford. Some “railbirds” concede Foyt a slight edge because his qualifying speed for the recent California ‘sCo,’’ only USAC championship race so far this season or. a two and-a half mile paved course, was almost five miles an hour faster than all rivals. There has been so little practice time to date, however, that no driver has established himself as a firm favorite. Among the rookies in the field this year, Tom Sneva is the only one who has earned a front row starting spot in any of the three 1974 championship events to date.

This Is due to nevi rules restricting the amount ol turbocharger “boost” and reduc ing the size oi the stabilizing wings. These changes, however, prob ably will make the battle foi starting positions more competi tive with a spread of only sb or seven miles an hour betweei the slowest and fastest cars U qualify. As in recent years, the Speedway again will pay a total of $19,500 in qualifying prize money, hut the formula has been altered because trials ’vill be held only un the two Saturdays. Instead of paying $3,500 on each of four days, plus $5,5u0 for the ten fastest over all averages, $3,500 will be paid for each of two periods on May 11 and again on May 18. The frist period on eact of those days will be from 11 a.in. to 2:30 p m. and the from 2:30 p.m. to 6 p m.
