My pick: Scott Dixon.
Sentimental pick: Tony Kanaan.

[Smoke]

It's close enough.

Kanaan up to 6th, from the 22nd starting spot.

LOL@ Takuma Sato being out

nothing new for him on memorial day weekend

back in his Formula One days he would always crash with someone at Monaco.

Speaking of F1, I see that Vettel is still whipping the rest of the field with that win at Monaco today.

OMG Danica is leading.

But thankfully she's going to have to stop with about 7 laps to get gas.

yeah he lucked out big time today, he was going to have to either stay out on really old tires and try to hold off Alonso and Button who had at least 20 laps fresher tires but then they approached a massive group of lap cars, Hamliton was one of them he attempted to pass someone, and someone else was making a pass at the same time right in front of him, the guy that was getting passed hit the wall his tire blew and some guy ran into Hamliton and a lot of the cars just piled into each other, the top 3 were lucky to not get in a wreck but a red flag came out and apparently there was a hole in the rulebook where they can actually change tires under the red flag and that's why Vettel won.

20 laps into the race though Vettel lost his radio and just decided to come into the pit the same lap Webber was supposed to pit, so Webber ended up in the pits for nearly 40 seconds ruining his race

OMG, you HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!!!

 

[BoiseStateFan27]

WOW!

I have never seen such a dramatic ending!

that was just crazy

 

[Smoke]

That poor kid. Geez.

 

[Smoke]

I hate Dan Wheldon too.

 

[Smoke]

Now his fucking owner is saying Wheldon is the best EVER at Indy. ROFL. Gimme a fucking break.

 

[BoiseStateFan27]

That poor kid. Geez.

I agree

he almost pulled off the biggest surprise since Bayne won the Daytona 500

 

[Forty_Sixand2]

What a fucking finish!!!!!

I am happy for Wheldon as well

My boy Dario took a chance and could have ended up gaining a lot if champ points on Power but got burned.

An American with the National Guard sponsor winning on Memorial Day weekend.
Would have been fitting.
But alas.....

indeed

maybe Earnhardt Jr can take the Coke 600

then again looking at practice speeds I don't think Menard's foot is bothering him

so Menard should win the 600!!!!!

Who watches? This used to be the thing, but has taken a back seat to Winston/Sprint/Nextel/Whatever Cup racing. I will likely tune it, mostly because I like the sound the engines make on TV when the cars pass by.

The thing about racing is that if you just watch the start and the last two laps, then you're golden for the event. The rest is just filler and boring.
