SPEEDWAY, Ind. – For an Indianapolis 500 that started off like a Saturday night trophy dash in a quarter-mile bull ring, with cars bouncing off each other and the walls of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway early and often, it ended in sublime fashion.

MINOOKA – Hurdler Weston Averkamp, of Ottawa, likes cold weather. Boy, was Wednesday a day for the senior. Averkamp set his season-best time of 14.48 seconds in winning the 110-meter hurdles at the Class 3A Minooka Sectional to advance to next week’s IHSA state meet at Eastern Illinois University. On a brutally cold day, with a wind chill of 44 degrees and temperature of 55 at 4 p.m., the conditions limited the events where more than the top two qualified for state.

SPEEDWAY, Ind. – Rinus van Kalmthout of the Netherlands goes by Rinus VeeKay as a racer, presumably because it sounds faster. Sunday, in last-chance qualifying for the Indianapolis 500, he was barely faster than rookie Jacob Abel, his teammate at Plainfield-based Dale Coyne Racing, and will start last in the field of 33 on Sunday. Abel will watch from the pits. “I feel relief, but not real happiness,” VeeKay said after his second four-lap average of 226.913 mph held up.

JOLIET – Cover your ears. The straightliners are back. All this weekend, Route 66 Raceway will be a beehive of activity, with a decibel level well above a beehive’s buzz. The NHRA, drag racing’s traveling circus, is back in town for the Route 66 Nationals, running two-at-a-time down the track for cash and – for the fortunate few – the coveted Wally Trophy. Those baubles, named after NHRA founder Wally Parks, only go to the winners of Sunday’s match-play finals.
