Leilani Münter passed her Indy Pro Series rookie test at Kentucky Speedway on May 14. The Indy Pro Series is the development series for the IndyCar Series, competing at the same venues in cars that reach speeds in excess of 190 mph. The next step for Münter, an ARCA stock car series veteran is finalizing sponsorship to compete in five of the six oval events remaining on the 2007 schedule. She hopes to debut at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in the Freedom 100 on May 25.
LEILANI MÜNTER: “I didn’t know what to expect because I had never driven an Indy Pro Series car before. I really enjoyed driving it. They are incredibly fun cars to drive. I am really looking forward to competing in the Indy Pro Series. “
BUTCH MEYER (Indy Pro Series Technical Director): “Leilani did a great job testing the Indy Pro Series car. I was very impressed with how quickly she got up to speed and with the feedback she gave the team. She had a real good feel for the car. She will be a very tough competitor in the Indy Pro Series. ”
