Speedway, Ind. – The Buddy Lazier and the Hemelgarn Johnson Motorsports team worked had to improve their speed but at the end of the day were not able to bump their way into the 2009 Indianapolis 500.
“I am very disappointed,” said Lazier. “We didn’t have it here today. We had it earlier today and we were back and forth. I feel bad for my guys. They worked so hard. We will be back. It just wasn’t there today.”
The team put Lazier and the No. 91 car in line to run again but the gun sounded ending the team’s hopes of starting another Indianapolis 500.
“We had speed and then we came up short on time there. I think the next run would have been really good. We just ran out of time.”
Buddy Lazier added that he is planning on being back for the 2010 Indianapolis 500.
