24 cars within 3 tenths of a second.

Thank God these cars aren't going back to Fontana next year.

I can forsee an ungodly accident featuring that pit exit on Sunday.

Pippa just wrecked exiting the pits on her qualifying attempt. Cold tire wheel spin. Only in the low 50s this evening, might cause a little trouble in the truck race as well.

Tomorrow will be sunny but the ambient temp is still not going to get out of the low 60s.

Here's hoping that Kentucky will--wait, IndyCar doesn't draw a crowd NASCAR did in July.

No worries about traffic here. Move on.

Carpenter is always really good on these ovals. I just can't help but think that Sarah should have stuck someone like Pantano or Carroll in her car for the road courses.

exactly. and for the life of me i cant understand why they made the trip to japan. seems like a huge amount to spend when in all reality they had to have known it was gonna be a very poor finish
