The place for all INDYCAR fans

Who wins the Indianapolis 500?

I want to hear who everyone thinks will win the Indianapolis 500. I think everybody already knows my pick, Helio, but if I had to go with a long shot I might give Will Power a chance. He looked great in quaifying and is finally with a team that knows how to get the job done.

Franchitti or Helio. I'd love to see Danica win but I do not think the AGR cars are equal to the Captain's cars or Ganassi's cars

It's less than 24 hours to the race now and I am for once greatly torn as to who I think the most likely winner is. I always hate to be a fence-straddler and I even more dislike it when it's between such obvious choices. However, when walking up to the betting window this time around, I think I would split my money between Kanaan, Castroneves, and Franchitti.

I do agree with Jim that AGR seems slightly behind Penske and Ganassi this year. However, I think we've been watching the "500" long enough to know that it's not always the fastest or strongest that ends up holding the Borg-Warner Trophy. With his experience, I believe that Kanaan has great potential to be well positioned to be there at the end as long as the race doesn't get significantly shortened by rain.

As for my main positive rooting interest, I would just like to say...

GO SARAH GO SARAH GO SARAH GO SARAH GO SARAH GO SARAH GO SARAH GO SARAH GO SARAH GO SARAH!!! :-D

As for my negative rooting interest, nothing would please me more than to see an early non-injury crash between Milka Duno and Paul Tracy. >:-) Other than those two, I really like everybody else in this year's field and would not be disappointed to see their face for all of eternity on the Borg-Warner Trophy.
