Thank Gawd for a proper road circuit. Especially after the bore-fest at the Indy bastardisation. I will make a point of watching because of the venue, a track I like. :smiley:

16 cars for Indy Pro 2000 at RA, which is decent.

And a whole lotta Sting Ray Robb :P.

Newgarden on pole for race 1, Harvey 2nd

Harvey seems to be really blossoming

Harvey was showing flashes last year already, but it seems that moving from SPM to AA really helped the MSR team as a whole.

I hope he doesn't get snake bit later on today. I'll watch the race when I wake up tomorrow - that means three races in one day. Huzzah!

Terrific first couple of laps.

Rossi has had a diabolical start to the year.
