Congratulations to Dario Franchitti on winning the pole, despite he has to start 11th due to a 10-place grid penalty. Also thumbs up for Viso for qualifying on the front row and to START from pole position for the first time of his career. And man... There should be a team taking Mike Conway aboard for full road/street course seasons in the future, especially on the street courses, man he's so quick on them and believe me, both Rahal Letterman Racing where he drove for in Long Beach and Dale Coyne Racing aren't absolutely the best teams to drive for..
