Congratulations Ryan!!!

What a great win for Ryan, even though it took Scott's mistake to lend
a hand. I was surprised it took so long for this to happen in the IRL
after all the great top 10s he has had so far. He had such great,
underdog victories in CC that I was sure he would land a victory
before this.

Way to go!!!!

Didn't Ryan have to pass Manning? So at least there was a pass for the win.

Yeah, but the pace car got the point for leading the most laps...

I have a new way of watching the IRL races (and most other races). I
was doing some grilling when the race started and didn't start
watching for an hour. The liberal use of FF -- skipping commercials
and endless yellows made it a pretty good race. Now if they can devise
a video filter to make the cars less butt ugly, I would buy it in a
second.

Robin Miller even commented about all the Full Course yellows when all
that was needed was a local. Seven laps to get a car that spun off
course -- is this NASCAR or racing?
