Great racing, lots of drama, and above all, it was safe. Perfect end to the season for Indycar.

Oh man Helio was coming to pass Hunter, this one he ruined in a way. But Indy was great.

I wouldn't say Sato is an idiot, but it's not a co-incidence that he decided both the Indy 500 and IndyCar Championship by crashing on the last lap, lol. :lol:


Yeah I bet Bobby Rahal is PISSED. :lol:

The icing on the cake is it's an American winner, which can't be bad for it. It'll be in the news for all the right reasons.

Great season, I've already seen better seasons, but that one was cool. Congrats RHR, first american since Sam Hornish Jr to raise an IndyCar trophy? I think yes!

But that crash was much more directly meaningfull for the battle of the race as he was part of the battle. Now he's just a sidekick going for nothing spining in the middle of the pack.

Shame for Power once again, happy for Ryan but more sad for Power, no one deserves a championship more than he does.

I thought that was a real good race, Lot of passing, A lot of good racing & excitement right down to the end.

Thought the red flag was a good move, Hate the GWC rule for similar reasons Bob Jenkins gave, Hope thats something Indycar never adopt in the future ;)

Feel bad for Will but happy for Ryan.


Overall have really enjoyed this season, The DW12 may not be the best looking car but its provided good racing this year just about everywhere.

Im just pissed there's such a long wait untill next season :x

Random Thought:

Wasn't the new FIL car supposed to be announced this weekend (IE Dallara, obviously)

Alright, with Bob Jenkins retiring, will Paul Page comeback or not? It's a waste of time and talent Paul broadcasting dragster races.

ESPN announced that Paul Page won't be doing NHRA next season last month already.
