Ryan Briscoe will replace Hinch in the #5 car.

Well that didn't last long.

 

[Retroram52]

Geez, Sato and Karam fighting over the same real estate and collects Briscoe. Can't even get one lap in. Richard Petty's entry doesn't even get one lap in. Fire in the engine department. The haves versus that have nots.

What a cluster fuck this race is.

 

[Retroram52]

I agree jeffro. Now we have Kanaan and Dixon fighting it out early. The Chevy's have a clear advantage over the Hondas. Andretti Autosport is the first Honda in fifth and Marco is in seventh.

 

[Retroram52]

Dixon leads.

 

[Retroram52]

Pagenaud beats Dixon off pit road after the Clausen crash.

 

[BoiseStateFan27]

Sato continued his tradition of memorial day wrecks I see, man I miss him in F1

 

[Retroram52]

Kanaan resumes the lead and he looks dominant. Somebody in the top 5 or 6 will win it today. These are the haves. Everyone else are the have nots.

 

[Schmoopy1000]

Kanaan resumes the lead and he looks dominant. Somebody in the top 5 or 6 will win it today. These are the haves. Everyone else are the have nots.

I think Simon pagenaud is just pacing the leader. Think he is the one to watch for the win today.

 

[Retroram52]

Pagenaud takes the lead at the halfway point followed by Kanaan and Power.

 

[Retroram52]

They are dropping like flies. Latest crash involves Carpenter and Servia. After a rough start Montoliet is now third. All the way back from 30th.

 

[Retroram52]

Not a brilliant move by Carpenter.

 

[Schmoopy1000]

a couple 18 crew members are down looks like they got hit by another car

 

[Retroram52]

Yea, Pippa Mann didn't move up and a car leaving got squeezed by her and the collision sent the car into three pit members of the 18 car. One got nailed pretty badly. That woman has become a liability today where she is not doing the right things in procedural spacing both on the track and now in the pits.

 

[Retroram52]

Montoliet has come all the way back and is now in second behind Dixon with Pagenaud in tow. We are under 75 laps to go.

 

[Schmoopy1000]

sounds like one could be seriously injured. Hope not.

 

[Schmoopy1000]

Kanaan wrecks coming out of corner

 

[Retroram52]

His car had little down-force in the rear-loose and around it went.

 

[Retroram52]

Past three-fourths of the race and we are getting down to it. We shall see if Dixon can hold off the three Penske cars to take it.

 

[Retroram52]

29 to go and we shall see who takes it. Dixon looks pretty strong but anyone in the top four could win this thing. Freakin' Sato in another wreck. Does this guy know what the hell he is doing?
