    Default Edmonton

    Here we are in Canada (Edmonton) and with only 15 of 40 laps (originally was supposed to be 50 laps) completed, 3 of the 4 Canadian drivers are out due to contact on the first lap and the final remaining Canadian is running in last place of those still running. What's with that?

    Rzadzinski is 5 seconds a lap off the leader's pace. This series is really getting funny to watch on T&S. Wish they had at least audio for us folks that don't get Versus.

    Guerieri & Newgarden are running away with it.

    Lap 27, caution out (contact between Carbone & Dempsey, both out of the race).....bunching them up again. This should be an interesting restart.

    Lap 33, Guerrieri and Newgarden again start walking away....but wait, what's that? Lap 36 out of 40 and OOPS, time runs out, sorry guys. Checkered flag falls. Guerrirei takes the win with Rzadinski picking up a top 10 only 2 laps down.

    Five cars out due to contact. Had to be an exciting race to watch.

    Can't wait for the IndyCar race to see if its anything like the crash fest in Toronto.

    What's with all the crashes? Is this becoming NASCAR with open wheels?

    Due to the grid for the second race being set by the first race's fastest lap times, all four Canadian drivers will start from the last two rows for tomorrow's race. Can't be happy times in Edmonton.

    Hope they do better tomorrow.

    Default Jon, it doesn't get any better today...

    Mike Conway punts Oriel Servia into the tires, then Ryan Hunter-Reay takes Takumo Sato out of 2nd place with a hopeless Zanardi unbraking move up the inside into T5...

    Earlier Tagliani punched out Rahal who continued, flat left rear, to loose it on the next RHT and take out Tracy..

    IRL ass-clowns;

    Way to go Tony G.!!!

    Rahal said it best when he was in the booth.

    It's a lack of respect for the other drivers.

    It was funny to hear Dixons engineer comment on Viso hitting Dixon. He said in racingwhat comes around goes around. Total hypocrits. The target teams is leading because of stupid moves like Viso made. It sure did come back around....

    Does anyone else out there think that maybe the safety crew needs to have a tool box mounted to the front bumper that contains a starter plugged in and ready to start a stalled car?

    It looks like a scene from the Keystone Cops every time they pull up behind a car with out any damage, and then Holy Crap! Someone get the starter from the back of the and plug it in quick before the field comes back around!!!

    I know next year they're suppose to have a anti-stall program on the car, but still...
