TK and Dixon both get around Quattro, using the lapped car of Mario Moraes as a pick to get by Quattro........

Watching the video feed, what happened was Moraes got by Foyt and then TK and Dixon used him as a pick for the lead

...and we have a full-course caution; Viso and Rahal made contact at turn 10 and Rahal goes sliding into the tirewalls.....

TK and Rice come onto pitlane; RHR also comes onto pitlane along w/Carpenter, Quattro and Viso

Race control reporting that the #33 of E.J. Viso will have to serve a 15-second stop-n'-hold penalty on the first green flag lap after the caution ends.....

Judging by the telemetry, there may be a timed race, in which Marco's fuel strategy plans just went through the proverbial basement......

Servia passes PT for 4th

Dixon and Helio still sparring for the lead w/21 laps to go

Wilson passes PT for 5th

Interesting thought......even though both Andretti and Manning pitted on lap 54 and Briscoe pitted on lap 58, they could conceivably make it to the end without having to pit

Contact btwn. Marco and Patrick; Patrick's stalled and Marco w/front-wing damage.........

Local-yellow in turn 10 for Patrick's stalled car......this could end up being a timed race......

Marco pulls onto pitlane; his team looking over the front-wing and front suspension..........he gets a new wing and is away..........

Patrick comes into pitlane for new tires; according to race control, she has also lost radio coms' w/her team

....and it will be a timed event; race control has started a 10-minute clock, meaning there are only about 9 laps remaining..........

Posted: **Sun Jul 27, 2008 8:49 am**

Top-5 with nine minutes left..........
Dixon
Helio
Wilson
Servia
PT

Mod's note....as it is now a timed race, expect any and all fuel strategies to go right out the window.......

Leaders approaching lap traffic........Dixon and Helio still 1-2 but Helio has tightened it up some
