I am quite the opposite has ai love large ovals with indy rcing. Perhaps its kind of dangerous at those sppeds amrio sadi byt it really eciting to watch with all the passing done. Really not many street or road course Indy races at that interest me.

I much prefer ovals as well. I love going to the Indy 500 every year and seeing them go by so fast. Hopefully last year's great racing was a product of the new car and will continue for this year's race.

Also, I forgot to watch the race. Glad to see Hunter-Rheay won.

I don't keep up with it much but I do go when they come to Barber. This was the first year my wife and I didn't attend but it i did catch most of the broadcast. I wish they would add at least two more passing zones. Seems like there is only one.

Hadn't seen Barber before, but it is a nice track, very much reminiscent of Mid-Ohio. Reasonably good race, some nice scraps for position, not a lot of yellow (despite what the announcers kept claiming, it was not flag-to-flag green racing, there was an early brief full-course yellow and a re-start).

Next up, Long Beach on 4/21.

Good to see an AJ Foyt car back in victory lane.

Have seen some great action at the track and will be going back Saturday for Pole Day and to the race, of course.

Go TK!

^I've gone the past couple years, but having only 34 cars makes it not very exciting. For anyone wondering bump day coverage is going on right now on the NBC Sports Network.
