I’m doing a story on druggies in racing and need all the details I can get.

Cocaine makes you dellusional, that explains those two right away.

Are all IRL fans into cocaine like their heroes?

Did you see Barry Green getting his hands dirty during a pit stop – respect!

Imagine F1 owners doing this- LOL

Excellent driving by PC! see him almost lose it while Forsythe was on? I
thought those guys were gonna jinx him giving the win with 5 to go.
Excellent camera work today by CBS too.

Fun to watch ..I always love this race…Great to see a Canadian win on our
wedding anniversary..2 years today since we wed at the Molson Indy in TO.
Good for Carp!
Felt bad for DaMatta.
Tracy close one.

Great race, was never boring. (As always with Cleveland.) Finally
someone other than Da Matta on top of the podium, and the French
Canadian fully deserved it after his bad luck this season. Too bad for
Dario though. Good run by the Canadians: #1 #3 #5. Also, very well
done by Jimmy Vasser. Got caught in the usual Turn 1 mess but bounced
back to an sixth-place finish.

I am pissed!
The damn power went out right after DeMatta came into the pits with
problems and it wasn’t restored
until the race was over.
Damn!!

If autocrossing was easier it would be called road racing.

Bob Varsha was saying Paul doesn’t have a contract and Kyle Petty was
talking to him on Thursday??
Will the Thrill from West Hill go to NASCAR in 2003?

Thank goodness, finally bad luck comes his way.

I was getting worried schu-matta would pull off another.

Way to go Carp!!!  Finally you got another!
