Qualifying is in the books for the Coke 600. Congrats to Kevin Harvick for winning the pole: 4-18-24-20-77-11-21-78-14-2. Points leader Kyle Larson never made a qualifying run after failing to get through the Laser Inspection Station before the cars hit the track.

Yes the 3 win's on fuel mileage after the 78 car looked unbeatable most of the night. Pretty much a yawner except for the final few laps with different strategies in play. Here is your top 10: 3-18-78-20-11-41-77-4-31-88

I was thinking that it must not have been a very exciting race, as I missed it, and they didn't have any highlights on any of the sports networks this morning.

Hell of a wreck at the Indy though, really shows how strong these cars are built, when the driver can walk away like that.

I didn't get a chance to see the race this year but saw the highlights. Wow you are right Woody. Some horrific crashes for sure!

that indy wreck was pretty scary, its a good thing the drivers compartments are super strong. the way he landed was scary.


After the 1999 Greg Moore fatal changes to the car's got made,

Fantastic driver from Maple Ridge B.C.

I met him a few times was a great guy.

Watched the Moore crash and recovery live on TV, went to Vancouver Indy many times, always enjoyed it, Moore, Villeneuve and Andretti were great to talk to, Al Unser Jr was always an idiot.

I did many trips to Vancouver. Great time.
Edmonton screwed up the races.

Jayskis reporting that Danica Patrick's future for 2018 is uncertain. She is signed through 2018 but has a clause in her contract that may give SHR an out to let her go. Bottom line is she just can't keep up with the boys as the 4,14 and 41 cars are all running strong and she continues to struggle.
