It should be an interesting race tomorrow. I am truely surprised that Sarah could hop in a car that isn't that great to begin with after being out of a car since last year, A Busch west car no less and do fairly well with it.

Tomorrow's race should be interesting. I wonder what Danica's excuse is for qualifying only slightly better than Sarah?
What her excuse will be if Sarah finishes better than her?
Way to go Sarah! and good luck tomorrow.

Looks like I might have to pass up Denver for Kentucky. Might. I'd like to see how well Sarah does after being gone for so long. I wish her the best of luck tomorrow.

The qual times in the article show Danica is 3 Miles an hour faster than Sarah. That's a lot more than only slightly better. We will see who is running ahead of who at the end of the race.

Are you high? Danica qualified at 215.456. Sarah qualified at 215.061. That's 4 tenths of a mph and less than 5 hundreths of a second.

I don't watch enough to know it's predictability. This is the first IRL race I've enjoyed watching in a very long time. And since I'm an open wheel oval fan, I'm gonna have to learn how to stomach the rest until I figure out which races are the best to watch. Kentucky makes the cut.

This is the race last year where Scott Sharp towed Vitor Miera around on a rope for 40 laps and Meira was unable to pass. They come to the line and Meira tries again and can't get it done (Suprise) Booth goes wild and announces it as the "x" closest finish in IRL history.

It was a top notch race.
Were else do you see cars three wide for two laps, we are not just talking about the front runners shown on tv, but this was going on through out the field.
As far as attendance:
1) did not promote race well enough.
2) Cincinnati Bengals 1st. preseason game at home on prime time tv starting only 2 hours after the race was over. Even tho this track is in KY. it is only about 20-30 mile from Cincy. that is were they draw the mjority of the fans from.
