INDYCAR IN ALABAMA



What a beautiful track. Built in 2003 and this is the frist time for them to host IndyCar. I am sure that it won't be the last. It reminds me of the older tracks that I like so much, Mid-Ohio, Road America, Mosport, Watkins Glen. Only draw-back is that it is a little tight for these cars to pass each other and that is what racing is about, speed and the ability to pass.

Helio Castroneves pulled it off through excellent pit strategy. That Penske Team really knows how to run a race. In second was Scott Dixon and third went to last year's champion, Dariio Franchitti.
