[Clutch]

Shut up! Marco

I've learned one thing today. The indy car officials don't care how the restarts go. 5 wide at one point coming to green.

Yeah ...like I posted before...they have rules, they just don't follow them.

Like that?

 

[VaDirt]

Again, I think and Andretti in victory lane would be nice, but Marco is a tool.

 

[HoneyBadger]

Son of a bitch, Franchitti to the lead.

 

[Racer1930]

It's about time for Sato to get frustrated and put it in the wall.

 

[Tennessee Racing]

Son of a bitch, Franchitti to the lead.

Something about that guy just makes me sick.

 

[Racer1930]

Well I'm part Scottish so I can't pull too hard against him...I'm also part Neanderthal, that's why I pull for Tony Stewart

 

[Racer1930]

About 5 more laps to the fuel window to have enough to finish the race.

 

[Racer1930]

They said going 33 was a stretch before...this should be interesting.

 

[Jameswnh]

That's awful for Sarah Fisher. This month started out really well for her cars, but couldn't have ended a whole lot worse.

 

[Racer1930]

Hinchcliffe's team just blew the race...he may as well come back in and top off now (if he can).

 

[Tennessee Racing]

Marco Andretti working on his Kurt Busch Radio Sweetheart audition.

I bet that brought a tear to Kurt's eye if he's watching this.

 

[Racer1930]

Why are they running so many yellow flag laps - they didn't have to do a cleanup?

Welcome to IndyCar Nation... that's how they do things.

 

[HoneyBadger]

Thrilling race for second -- but it will allow Franchitti to drive off.

 

[Blaze]

I like how Dario's number looks to be honest.

 

[Racer1930]

Odds of Sato finishing this race 50-50.

 

[Racer1930]

Haha...announcer "another blup..burp..change"...reminding me of D.W.

 

[VaDirt]

Top 4 is pretty damn good right now

 

[HoneyBadger]

RECORD LEAD CHANGES!

 

[Blaze]

I'm liking this! I hope this sets up for a good finish at the end

 

[HoneyBadger]

NICE SAVE ED CARPENTER!

 

[Racer1930]

They will all make it now.

 

[VaDirt]

Damn, bummer for Carpenter. But didn't hit anything

 

[HoneyBadger]

They will all make it now.

Maybe this means Wilson and Sato will gun for the lead now.

 

[Blaze]

Maybe this means Wilson and Sato will gun for the lead now.

I'd like to see that and hopefully have a great battle for the win

 

[Jameswnh]

Ed Carpenter, the oval whiz in his own car. That's a heartbreaker.

 

[Racer1930]

Maybe this means Wilson and Sato will gun for the lead now.

Yeah - may as well give it full fuel now and hug those walls through the turns for every bit of speed you can get.

 

[#17D500winner]

Should be a good finish to what has been a pretty good race.

 

[Racer1930]

Ed Carpenter, the oval whiz in his own car. That's a heartbreaker.

He may have barely touched with the aft wing...but he should be good to go with new tires - at least to finish.

 

[Racer1930]

Time to start bump drafting now

 

[HoneyBadger]

Fu**ing epic restart!

 

[Racer1930]

WOW Kanaan!

 

[VaDirt]

Holy Crap it's getting real now! Go TK!

 

[HoneyBadger]

Marco Andretti walls it!

 

[Blaze]

I like TK!

and wreck again

 

[#17D500winner]

I wouldn't mind seeing T.K. win

 

[VaDirt]

And the second most common phrase, right after "gentlemen start your engines," is "problem for Andretti."

 

[TexasRaceLady]

Go, TK !
