I can watch this race since 2002 and almost all of them were pretty exciting, the field in Indycar seems closer this year so I think it will be a good race. Last year scott dixon kind of dominated the opening races so it wasn't a surprise he won the 500.

    4.1 (final, not overnight)
    UNDER, 3.3/10 by race end because everyone will switch to the NASCAR Coca-Cola 600 (if the 500 rains, then 1.5/4)

    3
    UNDER, 0 (unless Danica Patrick is on pit road, then still UNDER, but 2)

It will get there eventually.

How?


You have to give it time. Heck we just got off a 12 year war last year, we need to make things stabilize a bit.

Well at least we have a Dutch driver back in the race, so it starts to look like the early 90's :thumbsup:

There are some awesome new paint schemes. I love the #34 and the #16. Stanton Barrett's car looks good to from what I have seen.
