Anybody watch the Cleveland CART race?

Well?

Quite a race, to say the least... that first corner move by Tracy was definitely something, as well as Bourdais' (sp?) ability to still pull off the win after that last caution...

Yep, i just finished watching it. Did you happen to see the end with Tracy and Junquiera going at it? I'm surprised Bourdais was able to hold off Tracy after that incident with Fernandez.

You bet! That was quite exciting, seeing them duke it out in that chicane.

Yup, the guy's really talented... I was expecting him to be toast after that caution flag was thrown out, but he pulled off a nice lead early on (though I think I saw him hit the brakes right before the green... naughty naughty. Though in all fairness, Tracy did it too.)

Tracy tried to pull the same move on Bourdais as he did on Fernandez two weeks ago in Portland. It didn't work though. Bourdais' has had his fair share of mechanical problems early on though. If he keeps winning like this, he may be able to be a serious contender for the championship.

I thought it was awesome how you could see the glowing exhausts because it was dark. I hope there are more night races to come.

I think night racing is better than daytime racing.

For the spectator, quite certainly! It's not very comfortable for the drivers, though.

I bet, does look great from a spectators view for sure
