Reasons to watch Sunday's road course race
Sporting News, The, June 30, 2006 by Roger Kuznia
1. The hairpin Turn 11 will be Action Central. Look for plenty of bumping and banging there.
2. Road courses show which guys really know how to drive.
3. It is more advantageous for a driver to pit under green than under caution because he'll never get lapped under green. It takes about 80 seconds to complete a lap.
4. Robby Gordon actually has a better chance of winning the race than throwing his helmet in disgust.
