08:05 AM ET 08.01 | Penalized at the Brickyard for speeding on his final pit stop Sunday, Juan Pablo Montoya missed out on a chance for victory. The outcome might have been different if Montoya had had a speedometer instead of relying on a tachometer, which monitors engine revolutions per minute. Or maybe he would have finished 11th anyway. Still, some drivers would like speedometers added to their cars or to have the electronic timing system that records pit-road speeds refined to cut down on possible error.
