Well, even in 1996 they had good crowds because the people probably didn't realize their favorites weren't there. Then come 97 when the people got wise and the cars got slow, loud, and ugly nobody showed up. |

I wonder if Andretti, Hinchcliffe, and Hunter-Reay not running today in conditions that will mirror raceday are going to bite them in the ass next Sunday. They felt pretty confident on fast friday too and look how that worked out for them. |

You know, with or without bumping, I could watch cars driving around the IMS all day long. NNS race on TV, but I'm stuck to the NBCSN stream. |
