Caution is out. Rain and lightning. Mass exodus at Nashville.
 
Danica was 3rd, but moments before the caution, Justin Wilson blocked her forcing her to go way high.
 
About to go green.

Dixon, the leader, says it's raining even though it's not.:D
 
Rain in Nashville, Ganassi, Mike Hull and crew made a big gamble that seems to have paid off...poor Tony Kanaan :(
 
Congrats to the Ganassi stable for a brilliant race strategy that lead to a 1-2 finish for Dixon and Wheldon. I don't believe everyone else came in to pit! If there was ever a time to chance it, that was it, it was obvious that rain was coming quickly! AGR must learn to gamble a bit ;)
 
Scott Dixon knows he's screwed if the rain doesn't hold up.

They meant to pit, Dixon missed it; error leads to possible victory at Nashville.
 
The race is over! Scott Dixon, missed pit road under caution, lucks into his third straight win at Nashville Superspeedway.
 
Scott Dixon wins the Firestone Indy 200. This is his 3rd time in a row winning at this track. Kudos to Scott.

The race was shortened by rain.

Danica had a great car tonight. She finished 5th. If the rain would of held off, she could of won this thing. She was in contention on all night. Im proud of her.
