Fans can go watch testing for free. #11-Brett Bodine was scheduled to test this week, but was excused so he could heal up.(7-9-2002) UPDATE: Rain disrupted the first of four days of NASCAR Winston Cup testing for the Brickyard 400 at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

Morning rain kept cars off the track until 2 p.m. and the late rain foiled the plan of running an hour past the scheduled conclusion. The revised plan for Wednesday is to run from 9:00am to 6:00pm without an hour lunch break. #4-Mike Skinner was the fastest at 178.298mph.(Indianapolis Star)(7-10-2002) Speeds – Day 1: top five were: #4A-Mike Skinner, 178.298 mph; #26A-Todd Bodine, 177.920; #6-Mark Martin, 176.101; #97A-Kurt Busch, 175.453; and #36A-Ken Schrader 175.201.
