Just looking at weather radar from WTHR Ch. 13 in Indianapolis, and it is showing not much in the way of r@!n, and they are saying 30% chance. I think we'll see the field full today with ALOT of action in the first couple hours.

Just hope Buddy Lazier can get up to speed. Looked like he was struggling just a little yesterday.

I am loving the 7:04 thread start time and the fact that I too was up and posting early........... yes it seems that like Irieron said we are all pathetic at how giddy we can become over streaming video!

Ahhhh yes......... Between the 5 week old (who is doing awesome) and the 3.5 year old with the gymnastics recital this morning........ it seems bump day is out for me.......

fingers crossed that I can send the wife and kids to my folks next weekend and slip away, though I would rather go this weekend since it won't be such a mad house.

Well.......... she is exceptionally gifted! tongue laugh We're looking forward to the 2020 Olympics!

more about learning coordination that "actual" gymnastics.

The fluff n' nutter comment made me laugh out loud though........ you are from NE. Originally I would have guessed PA, but now I am thinking MASS.

For some reason I almost started to fill up just by watching brice's car pulled down pit lane. Yeah, I've seen some wicked wacky people all dressed up in crowd shots. Not a Masshole Smuff, but thanks for asking:)

I am stoked for this day.

I am glad to hear the weather seems to be holding.

I am still picking my four to miss the field as: Duno, Moraes, Geibler and Dominguez.

Lazier, Fisher, Roth, Bernoldi, Camera and Yasukawa are also going to have to be on their game to make the show.

I am picking my 12th fastest qualifier to be Will Power followed by Graham Rahal, John Andretti, and Davey Hamilton filling up to Row # 5.

Should be a great day. Enjoy it all. We haven't a final weekend with 4 drivers getting bumped out of the field for a few years now, and that's great to see.

No, visuals like that make us laugh but at the end of the day we don't care about it.

John Andretti has 1-800-LASVEGAS sponsorship in addition to the aforementioned A.J. Foyt IV season-long sponsorship with Eli Lilly.

24 cars already on track, but none of the ones that already qualified have come out.

Viso, Power, and Rahal are on track after their crashes yesterday.
