Is the sun an issue on the tree in the morning at Indy?
Noticed that myself. Right lane seemed to have the most red's.

I know this happened yesterday morning, but Randy and I were paired, and then were put into the lanes before advancing underneath the bridge. At this point, when our lanes were to advance, my car would not crank. A buddy went to inform Randy that my car was having issues, and Randy asked to get out of line and wait. However, officials told him that he could not, and I just didn't have enough time to rectify the issue. Therefore, he received a single.

Sorry for your bad luck, Chad. Also, a classy gesture on Randy's part!

An .093 RT by Fetch tells you he knew he had Boudreau covered .Anthony does not generally hit RT's like that......
This was like a kick in the gut to Jim. I was pitted next to him and helped him with cooling down his car for this race. Nobody works harder to go fast than Jim. He is the classic gentleman racer. This time he not only had to race one of the large-ego cars but it came with an excellent jockey; who is not the owner. We can discuss these issues until the cows come home but nothing will change. This race was about big money taking over an outfit that has no shame. They try to pass this off as a changing of the guard when in fact it is simply greed at it's worst in automotive competition organizations.
