I was hoping to go this year, but other plans got in the way. Anyone here going? Definitely am going to make the trip next year.

Still looking forward to watching it on ABC, this has to be considered the most competitive race yet this season. The CC teams finally have a feel of the dallara honda, and the points leaders are also the best IRLers on road courses. I can come up with at least 8 that have a legit shot at outright winning:

Dixon
Castroneves
Kanaan
Andretti
Rahal
Servia
Power
Wilson

And another 7 that have a reasonable shot at top 5:

Bernoldi
Viso
Patrick
Mutoh
Briscoe
Manning
Rice
Howard
Hunter-Reay

With over half of the races left on road and street, this weekend should give a good indication of how the rest of the season will play out. I wouldn't be surprised to see very aggressive driving and some of that taken off the track.
