Indy

Am I the only one bored to death by the Indy race? There's no passing (except in the pits), not much wrecking, and not much chance to lap anyone because the track is 20 miles long.

Not even ESPN's 1080 coverage (that's 360 coverage spun in two more dizzying circles) has gotten me all hyped up. I might use it as an excuse to take a Sunday afternoon nap.

Seriously, what am I missing about Indy?

Hi John, who won the Busch race? Was it everybody's favorite whippin' boy?

John Newsom said:

Yes, indeed, Jason Leffler won, and it wasn't because the other 42 cars either wrecked, blew up or got bored and quit. And let me point out that he leads the unofficial Busch-only standings. (He's 140 ahead of Bobby Hamilton Jr.)

Now that Leffler's two ahead of me on the career Busch Series wins chart, I need to find someone else to pick on, er, have fun with. Any suggestions?
