If it's racing in the dry, FORGET IT, I'm only here to see races start dry then gradually become wet. This is why all oval racing is BULLSHIT |

I think I said after Fontana last year that the only issue i've really had has been the tyre wear, You get great racing for a few laps with fresh tyres but then the tyres fall off & racing becomes a lot harder as grip levels fall & it goes back to mostly single file stuff. Give them tyres for the bigger/faster ovals which last longer & I think the racing would be even better. |

I'm fine with that. Complaining about too much overtaking is the equivalent of complaining about have too many hot busty swedish blondes wanting to sleep with you. Just grow some balls and enjoy it. It won't last forever. Another comparison, you like overtakes? So you prefer the new Bristol? I prefer the old one. |

If they do change the oval DF and tyre package, it must not bring back pack racing |

My bet is that it will pend to the side of early DW-12 at Indy - new aero packs to provide better air penetration equals less drag. Might just be enough for the second place to have to work for it, if he wants to get to the lead. Not just have it given to him like a free souvenir. |

The same with comparing overtake with a busty blonde. Or that's way worse. |

Compared to busty blondes, everything is worse. Except maybe a busty redhead. |

MAJOR penalties handed out to Chevy by indycar for engine infractions. Chevy found "reliability issues" and decided to change 11 of the 12 motors. So now Honda holds a 162 point advantage in the manufacturer standings despite only scoring a total of 70 at St. Pete haha. Chevy is also refusing to say who has the 12th engine which they believe to still be ok. I guess its better than when Chevy recalled the Volt a couple years ago because they came straight from the factory WITHOUT FRONT BRAKE PADS! http://www.motorsport.com/indycar/news/ ... -questions http://www.indycar.com/News/2015/04/4-6 ... ine-repair |

Congrats everyone, at this moment we all have more engine manufacturer points than Chevrolet!

Just realized that during the Indy 500, I will be on a plane. To a warm and sunny destination, but still, no Indy 500 this year
