Pocono should be a great track for today's Indycar. I should be just as racy as Indy....I dont see why not. I just wished it was a 500 and not a wimpy 400. For me what makes Pocono a great track is the layout was the idea of Rodger Ward! Turn 1 is Trenton, Turn 2 is Indianapolis, and Turn 3 Is Milwaukee.....how many 25 year olds do you know that could tell you that fact!  |

Are you talking about the 2013 Indy 500, Calvin. I saw a whole lot of passing, but very little racing.

What we learned today: Saving fuel wins races, Emma is still hot, and Sato is still a kamikaze.

It was interesting to have Hinch in the booth. I thought it was interesting that teams do not want drivers to practice pit in due to the brake wear. In sim-racing, I practiced pit in a ton because in an equal field, it was where I could gain a few tenths.
Also thought the insight to the Firestone tire change was interesting. Thought it might have to do with why some of the results this year are so confusing.

The tortoise got the hair today. What goes fast uses fuel. Hate to see it come down to a fuel race. Not as much passing as I thought there would be. I agree should have been a 500. May bee fuel would not have been as big a factor. Sato screwed up and he admitted it point blank so I thought that was cool. Really the two big factors to not being more racy was that Hunter Reay got taken out and Kanaan screwed his race up too. If those two were in at the end it would have been different. Can't wait till next year, hopefully they will change it to a 500.

Who'd have thought that after 11 rounds that Andretti would have 5 wins and no other team would have more than one. Also, who'd have thought Foyt, Coyne, KV, and Schmidt would have as many wins as Penske and Ganassi?? Not only that but those four smaller teams had their wins before either Penske or Ganassi got theirs! What a crazy mixed up year!! Anyone care to handicap Toronto??

What a crazy mixed up year!! Anyone care to handicap Toronto?? Jordan Normally I would say, "Easy; Power!" Not this year, not so easy. I would have to go with RHR - he's strong on the streets this year, and except for Sato's brain fart, would have been fighting for the win yesterday. MJ |
