Remembering Dan Wheldon

This blog has been silent for a while now due to personal and professional reasons but it can remain silent no longer. I really wish I didn’t have to type this but I must. Dan Wheldon is no longer with us. It does not seem real. It must be a nightmare. Someone please wake me from this but it is true. Dan Wheldon lost his life doing the thing he loved the most racing an Indycar. If you don’t know who that is or how devastating that is. Well I don’t really have the words to explain it to you. I’ve seen many of my fellow fans search for the words that just won’t come. It’s not even about racing, if you never heard Dan speak, I feel bad for you because if you had you would have liked him.

A crazy weekend at Indy.

Just thought I'd go over a few thought about this weekend, while everyone else was freaking out about the "Lost "finale", Indycar fans had their own freak out with a wild last hour of qualifying. Some have asked if Tony Kanaan hadn't been involved would it have been so compelling? Probably not. I always love the last hour of qualifying where things get desperate because it's great TV so I'm probably not the one to ask that question.

Bubble day = Craziness.

Wow, that had to be the wildest last hour of qualifying I've ever seen. Unfortunately Sarah Fisher Racing and Andretti Autosport two of my favorite teams were right in the center of the storm.
