This is Cory Mac's 17th Indy, Dakin's 11th, but this is his first appearance at Indy since 1998. His first was in 1971. Cory Mac has won this event twice, in '96 and '99, and he was runner-up in '97. McClenathan is 5-0 against Dakin, 1-0 in first rounds, and they last faced off in 1998.

The winner will take on Doug Herbert in round two, and a 3.917 or quicker will give them lane choice...

Dakin left VERY early - so early the tree was not yet activated. Cory didn't have a great light as a result, but missed running low ET of the round by just .001. At the top end Cory said "I thought OMG! I'm late!" when he described the run. Cory will have lane choice in round two.
