Not that I was paying that much attention, but when one of my drivers, Tony being one of them, is leading the race I tend to wake from my napping to pay attention.
For the second time in history of the race at The Brickyard, Tony wins it. Of course he still has a few more wins to tie and beat Jeff Gordon’s record of 4 wins.
From the Yahoo: Tony Stewart dominates at the Brickyard
After years of torment, Tony Stewart has mastered his beloved hometown track. Stewart scored his second career victory at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, dominating Sunday at the place that caused him a decade of heartache and once even threatened his career.
But he found peace at the Brickyard with his electric 2005 breakthrough victory, and this time made it look easy. Stewart led a race-high 66 of the 160 laps, but was passed by 2003 winner Kevin Harvick on a restart with 20 to go.
He never panicked as he chased down Harvick, even taunting his friend over the radio. “Here, kitty, kitty, kitty,” he called. “Come get you some of this.”
I just wish I was paying attention so I would know how Jeff Gordon got so far ahead in the points chase.
