Choppers didn't jump the restart. either way kahne isn't good enough to be in the chase so hopefully doesn't get the win. Maybe and he is good enough....just in a slump. Would be nice to see Roger Penske get his first Brickyard 400 win. Edited July 24, 2017 by Biggie Smails Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Nascar has just lost a chunk of its crowd as the times have changed. The older folks have left and the younger ones are not picking up the slack because they just don't care about racing or cars in general. Monster Energy is an attempt to appeal to a younger crowd. I don't think the seating @ IMS in the straights is that great for watching a race. Mind you the corners looked pretty thin. How is the attendance for the 500? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do recall following the Cup results in the Monday edition of the Toronto Sun starting around '79 or '80. Full rundown & they didn't call it the 'Michigan 400' when Miller beer sponsored the race.
