25 sprints in the pits. Just finished heat in the engines. Ahhhh..... the smell of methanol exhaust fumes. Today is a good day. Hot laps next.

Anthony had the field covered for the first three laps then yellow for the 3P blowing a motor. On restart 33 got the jump and the lead. Car started getting loose after that and Anthony finished 4th. He will redraw for starting spot in A-main.

What a horror show. 22 cars started. By lap 7, 12 were still running. Anthony had dropped to11th at one point, but with attrition, finished 7th. Justin Barger won. Utica-Rome Sunday night.
That's all for tonight race fans.

Well, I see Vettal won Monaco. Not heard anything about Indy yet, so I will go with Will Power. I will go with an underdog for the 600. Allmendinger. Think I spelt his name wrong.
