The series goes to one of the most storied tracks in the world, what did the Indianapolis Motor speedway have to hold for the drivers?
McAffee gets a huge jump coming down to the line and the race starts!
Lap 22: McAffee and Flint open up a few second lead, starting to break away
Lap 33: Running in the back of the pack, Harkins spins in turn 1 and puts it into the wall. No caution.
Lap 39: Flint pits from the lead as the first round of pit stops cycle through.
Lap 78: Walkowiak has his streak of good runs end with a blown engine
Lap 80: The second round of pits happen, and McAffee leads Morello and Bracket by a car length.
Lap 86: 3rd place in points, Tabulov has gearbox issues and has to retire. This hurt him a lot in points.
Lap 106: The lead pack is all bunched up!
Lap 129: After a round of pit stops, Bracket takes the lead, and tries to put Wick a lap down.
Lap 131: Severn was having a crummy day, and retires because of his gearbox
Lap 143: Wick slows down Bracket, relinquishing his 3 secnd lead.
Lap 147: Everyone outside of the top 4 get a huge caution, Simms spins in turn 2 bringing out a caution.
All of the leaders pit, making sure no one runs out of fuel.
McAffee wins the race off of pit road.
Lap 151: Every driver is running together, with the 26, 82, and 20 being a lap down.
Lap 156: Unger uses Wick as a pick and takes the lead!
He holds on and wins his first race!
Here are the results from Indy. The same group dominated the entire race but the late caution bunched everyone up, and gave guys like Irons a chance to pass cars after being quiet all day.
The Series goes to Watkins Glen next week. Who will be able to turn left AND right the best?
