Texas
Nice job by Carpenter, well deserved win. I was also impressed by Aleshin. He's had a pretty impressive rookie year.

Carpenter really had the bit between his teeth, that's for sure.
I wish we had more night races.

I am disappointed that the attendance was so poor. So many empty seats. I always thought that Texas is one of the best races of the year. And it's such fun race to attend. Last time I have been there, the tickets cost under $100, you could take a cooler with you, and the race started in the dark, sparing the spectators from the summer heat. The race track is pretty good. You can see the whole track from almost any seat.

Before the internet, I seriously doubt any of us paid attention the how full or empty the grandstands were. Now it seems like people are more interested in attendance that the actual race.

Good job by Carpenter, and he played his hand at the right time. JPM seems to be bringing his early IndyCar form back into the light as well, but Power had the run on those new tires.
Not a good race for Honda.
I just hope we see more solid races with fewer cautions. Once it turns into a strategy race and a roll of the dice deciding the leaders, it just gets dull.
