There’s nothing better to jinx a win than predicting it will really do. I hope it doesn’t apply on wishing Franchitti his first title. Good post, either way.

Although just one thing. As much as we all do still knock him from time to time, I would just like to add further kudos to Sato.
There are a few drivers out there that would love four top tens and a pole at this stage of the season. If he can keep his head and not wall it, he could have another good result here.

I do believe that the Iowa race is now a sell out. Excellent stuff. Sato on pole with Danica alongside. Power and Dario on row three, with Dixon in P23. Looking forward to this.

Hey, it was nice to see a few more fans than usual in the stands for qualification. I also like KV, Danica and Hinch doing well. Keep an eye on Hinchcliff because I think he is on his way to being a star in INDYCAR. He’s good.

George,
If you go to Iowaspeedway.com you can check out how many tickets are remaining in each section and how many are remaining altogether. Last time I checked there were just under 500 tickets available in a venue that holds 30,000! Not too bad, eh? I expect a great race with KV getting their first IICS win! I’m taking TK, but I believe TKS will also grab a podium spot too….

I want to see Oriol win — or Justin, Tony, Ryan H-R, Ryan B…

“Perhaps Pressdog will extend an invitation to his home state and I can attend this race one of these years.”

No need to wait for Pressdog. Given that I might be able to hit a golf ball from my house into Iowa with a strong enough tailwind, I’m inviting you for 2012 right now. Of course, that means diddly squat, given that I’m a solid 2 1/2 hour drive from Newton, so you’ll still be on your own to find your own pork chops for most of the weekend, but there you go. You’re invited.

It makes me sick to say this, but Dario is going to win, either with or without the help of Brian Barnhardt.

Rooting for Graham, betting on Dixon. I did the same in Milwaukee and it didn’t quite work out for me, so…
