he's referring to "cross turning" they are on a dirt track, it's basically drifting. They have to turn the opposite way to keep the back end from kicking out but eventually have to turn the wheel towards the end of the turn. If they had the wheel turned in the opposite way they whole time...... they would have a wall waiting for them

There wasnt much passing comparing to years before. i have been to every 500 since 1996 and that was one of the most boring. Also I was talking to people from the Panther team and Luzco Dragon team and they all said it was boring and that no one could get around anyone. Alot of the passing I saw in turn one was of lapped slower cars and on restarts only. For instance if they had more downforce in the cars Vitor and Raphael most likely would not have crashed

I think a lot will nge soon. Having turbo chargers again in 2012, but prob. 2013 will be sick. They will be able to go a lot faster again. Pole day will mean something again with new track records.
