Pippa’s post qualifying press conference, she was devastated. They never were able to trim’ the car for enough speed. Painful to watch and mad respect to the press corp for no follow on questions.

Carb Day. Kanaan had the best time, averaged 227.791.

The Great American race.  No American engines, chassis and very few American drivers.  It used to be a great race, but now I have better things to do this weekend.

Ed’s on pole. Marco, Danica, Alexander, Josef, Zach, Ryan-Hunter Reay, Charlie, Conor, Sage, J.R., Graham, Spencer, Santino and Chevrolet engines are in the field.

The Brazilians still control this series, but you see some familiar names (kids and grandkids) that have potential.
