10 laps to go I thought Dario would wrap it up, but no gas!!!! Come On CG a repeat of Q-Day? ? Hildebrand crashing on the final corner and sliding down to the line in second??? Doesnt the engine have to be running to place? I wonder, Rahal in third, Good Job!! and Lotus Colors in Fourth with TK driving nice.. Who says second is never remembered? they will today!! Congrats to Dan Weldon, Brian Herta and Sam Schmidt!!!! This one I will watch again!! Chris

Pretty sure JR was still in the gas on the frontstretch - was hoping he could win, even if it would be torture for Michael to do the decals. What an epic race - a great day!!

even if it would be torture for Michael to do the decals. That would of been the best part LOL Im just joking Michael! But I think the National Guard car is more possible to make decals for than the Flow Orange of Dan's car?

Maybe he can print the white and let us paint the orange - it is a difficult color for ALPS to do anyway!

Watching it, He appeared to let off the gas and the the rear stepped towards the wall and into the marbles..He could have run dry though it would react the same way..in His interview he said he was trying to save gas and eased off but he probably wouldnt admit to running dry!!! Excellent Race either way!!! Chris

Excellent Race either way!!! Chris Would've been great to see JR cross the line in first in that condition! Glad for Wheldon! Jim

No comments on the winning car decals at this time. I'll just say that I'm not writing it off. At this time I don't feel at liberty to say anything more than that.

As for the race. WOW! WOW! WOW!!!! I couldn't have asked for a better 100th anniversary and a better driver to represent the 100th anniversary in victory lane! And wait until you see my pics (those of you connected on Facebook are starting to get a preview)
