To make the speed shot off of Turn 4 look good?

To make the speed shot off of Turn 4 look good?

To distract you from how badly rusted the catch fencing is?

 

[CAMikaze]

[Fuzzy]

Holy crap, some defensive blocks going on, wreck will happen if they continue to do that.

 

[CAMikaze]

Allen Bestwick did not just compare an IndyCar steering wheel to an Xbox controller.

And Rahal may be out with Electrical problems

UPDATE:
TK ran out of fuel and they've stripped the gears on the starter.

Rahal is out.

Odd theory: The drivers want to complete this race as quickly and cleanly as possible so that Busch can get to Charlotte ASAP. Agreed?

Also: Indy 500 on the big screen at Charlotte right now.

A shame but he still has last year's win. Nothing can take that away.

Just believe they're going really fast.

And Helio now leads!

 

[acekev1983]

They will throw a caution for debris with 10 laps to go

 

[GTPorsche]

Half of the race done in 75 minutes. That's just insane.
