Greatest Spectacle in Racing
Spent the holiday weekend in Indianapolis for the "Greatest Spectacle in Racing."
It was a good race although I was disappointed that Danica Patrick did not win. She finished in the top 10, which isn't bad, and last year she was the first woman to lead a lap at the 500 and also 2005 Rookie of the Year. Not bad, but she didn't win. Maybe next year.
The race was exciting and this year even better for me because I didn't have to get up at 3 am to head into the track. I camped at the track and strolled in at an easy 7:30 am. Sweet. I also didn't run around like a crazy person taking pictures of everything in sight.

i've never been to an indy 500 but i always wanted to go (been to lots of other races though). although it hasn't been the same for me since the IRL came on the scene. for a while after that split, there wasn't even anyone worth watching in the IRL, and hardly any CART drivers were racing at indy. that was a big bummer.
