Well Tony drew the #1 qualifying position, which usually isn't a good thing for a top qualifying run- here's to hoping he can lay down a good run and be top 15 for tommorrow- ya know Tony wants another brickyard "W"  |

Well 15th isn't too bad considering went out first, but looks like montoya and jimmy the cars to beat sunday, Again..Nice to see newman with a top 5 qualifying- he can close the gap on 12th with a good day today.

With a little more momentum on his side, Tony Stewart easily would be one of our favorites in light of his Indy record. Since 2004, he's won this race twice -- in '05 and '07 -- and finished worse than eighth only one time. Since Dover eight weeks ago, he's managed to get the results fantasy owners anticipate during the hot summer months with top-10s in all but two races, but he hasn't shown any of the authority you've grown to expect at this time of year. Still, the last two times the series was on a flat track, Stewart finished second most recently at New Hampshire and third at Pocono.

kind of a Boring race with alot of excitement in lap one and then the last 12 laps..
Tony had a 5th-10th place car all day, and really was some great driving at the end to hold off the cars with 4 tires( tony only took 2 to get position) to keep at 5th and not fall to 8th or worse...
really hoping tony saving his "best for last" this year as he just hadn't beena dominate car at all, and is kind of shocking to see his weekly struggles when gets into top 10 not going anymore forward
Well on to part Deux of the 'flat tracks" and Pocono where tony and denny usually dominate |
