They're still side-by-side; no one is giving an inch at 216mph; Briscoe has the narrowest of leads but Dixon still holds steady...........and they're still side-by-side........ :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

Looks like a bunch of the front-runners are making another stop, which is odd.........there's no way any of them would be able to make it; they'd have to make at least one more stop............ :shock: :shock: :?

Top-5 after 124 laps
Power, Briscoe, Castroneves, Dixon, Carpenter


......just had an unkind thought: Castroneves is between Briscoe and Dixon; will he make his car very wide and try to keep Dixon at bay? :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :shock:

Power leads them back to the green................while we were away, Dixon jumped the restart and gave up a few spots; Carpenter was on a rocket and is nipping at Power's heals while Briscoe nearly white-walled the car exiting turn 4
