Pato O'Ward topped the timesheet in the fourth practice on Thursday night for the Indy 500.
O'Ward clocked 228.861mph in the No. 5 Arrow McLaren Chevrolet thanks in part to an aerodynamic tow.
“We got a really fat tow lap on the board, which was unexpected,” O’Ward said.
“I’m happy with my car. We did race runs. We did qualifying runs.
"Obviously, it doesn't necessarily translate perfectly to when the boosts come up just because the speed is so different.
"But tomorrow if it does rain out, at least we got a bit of a feeling of what the car is tending to want to do on a bit more trim level.”
The next session, on Fast Friday, will feature the Honda and Chevrolet engines boosted by 100 more horsepower.
