Marshall Pruett podcast had an interesting idea, house cars. The series picks up the tab for 2-3 cars and use them for the 500. Offer them to ride buyers or one offs from the champions of other series.

Alonso will get taken out turn one, lap one, by Charlie Kimball, or possibly Sage Karam.

I briefly glanced at trackforum yesterday, and the majority of posters seemed pretty thrilled with Nando running the 500 this year.

There's a week between the Pocono race and the next F1 race in late August. Maybe nando gets bit by the oval bug and he can finagle another race this year.

We should attempt getting a suite at the 500 one year. Phoenix this weekend, I'll be in town Thursday evening, have "fan suite" tickets like I did last year. Gonna enjoy the hell out of that air conditioning.

I could have sworn I read that Phoenix was going to have qualifying and the race on Saturday, but at last check on the PIR site, qualifying will be Friday night. Am I taking crazy pills here?

Without a doubt. I'm pretty sure there was wheel on wheel contact going into 3 to make that pass for the lead. Stands still looking kind of sad.

Hard to say, going to go out on a limb and say the numbers are equal-ish to last year. IOC might be able to weigh in as well.

Yeah it was a Bad Race, I even considered leaving early to try and beat traffic. The USAC silver crown race was more exciting; poo poo the USAC quarter-midget races held in the drat fan pavilion put on a better show too.
