Indy Car In Texas

It has been some time since Sam Hornish has dominated a race, but last night in Texas it was vintage Hornish and vintage Penske. Other than the race starting a little too late for us folks on the east coast, it was pretty entertaining. I especially liked when Tomas Scheckter threw his gloves at Marco Andretti after the too touched wheels that sent Scheckter to the garage. Good thing they are friends, I'd hate to see what enemies might do to each other.

It is amazing to me how these drivers race wheel to wheel in these open wheel rocket ships at speeds over 215 MPH. Safer barrier or not it just shows you the courage these drivers have racing at such high speeds. Sam Hornish is probably the best at this type of racing. Even though he was never really challenged in this race, he has shown in the past the ability to race on the edge of danger and put his car in the winners circle. This is why he is the best at this form of racing. So congrats to Sam on another dominating win and to the Andretti Green team for finishing 2-3-4 behind him.
