Pit Pass Network Predictions: Indianapolis Double Header, IRP, & Eldora

All the racing series that Pit Pass Network covers will be running this weekend. It is a Indianapolis doubleheader (technically tripleheader) with the NASCAR Cup and Xfinity Series racing on the Indianapolis road course along with IndyCar. Meanwhile, the Craftsman Truck Series will kick off their playoffs at the Lucas Oil IRP. It all kicks off Thursday night with the SRX taking on their first dirt track at Eldora. With all of this action, how will the Pit Pass Network crew do with their predictions this week?

Shout out to the following Pit Pass Network members for their correct predictions last weekend:

SRX: Ronald Coffey, Robert Hill Jr, Terra Jones, & Daniel Smith
