Helio crashed, hows that doing pretty well

I taped qualies, will check it tomorrow. But looking at that list, Danica and Ed should be ashamed of themselves.

Since Qualifying isn't covered up here (The race is not shown until 3 am Mon. morning unless you have TSN2 which Bell Satellite dropped) would someone please tell us what TK had to say and secondly what happened to Ed and Danica. I know Ed is slow but DP was reasonable in last practice.
Danica spun and hit the wall, didn't get many laps..Quote:

Well I would say that the garage area has the feel of CART in the 1990's. Drivers and team owners greating the fans. I even saw Chip Ganassi talking to a little girl that stop by his trailer. Then there is this a Long Beach GP program with a cover of Indy 500 Aces. The drivers on this are Johnny Rutherford, Al Unser Jr., Rick Mears, AJ Foyt Jr., Gil DeFerran, Dan Weldon, Scott Dixon, Dario Franchitti, Helio Castroneves, Danny Sullivan. That's 20 Indy 500 wins on one cover in one weekend.

Power is looking good for my prediction to win tomorrow.
If he's a winner, do you guys think Penske and Verizon will find a way to run Power for the rest of the season??
Will just became my favorite IndyCar driver.
Power FTW!!
Check this out......

flying standby.... so I'll either be in the sun or my livingroom
wish me a bit of luck
I have a question for you, dudes. Gil de Ferran scored his first LBGP win in the ALMS race, right? He never won here in CART?
He was $2 away from a win in 1996.
