the racing at the Brickyard ...

i believe I read that the race will probably not have alot of passing and thus starting position is more important.... is that so?

also, what tracks are more likely to see passing and movement and give those starting in the back a better chance to win?

thanks

Re: the racing at the Brickyard ...

that's easy: restrictor plate and short track races always produce the most passing...

indy is flat and fast. without a good handling car, ya ain't got a chance. those who do well there are, historically, the better drivers. Jeffey won the first one - look for him to repeat this year.

Jeffy can't repeat since he didn't win last year Sorry RD, had to give you a little heck. On a more serious note though I'm sure The Hendrick cars will be tough.... just til the last lap and blow their engines or slam the wall. YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAW!:twisted :
