In fairness, this time it wasn't just Danica complaining about lapped cars blocking top-five/lead lap cars.

I couldn't see Franchitti allowing her past him and quite frankly she was fortunate not to be passed by Hornish herself.

The comment "get out of the way and have a nice day" was priceless. Danica's great.

I don't think she would have passed Dario - the real problem was Carpenter balking her ALLOWED Hornish to close on her - and she had to make some pretty strong blocking moves to keep third.

Go Scotty, 2 wins in a row

- solid drive Dario, very solid...

Yeah the racin' was good. It was a battle all the way to the end.

Then again i'm basing this off the last 40 laps

This is shaping up to be a real battle.
