if last year was any picture of what kind of turnout the west coast will have then it's pretty obvious INDY is the place to be in North America.

not taking anything away from the west coast peeps...it's just the way it is..

INDY is the place to be because of one main reason..thats where all the big timers will be.
sounds stupid and some may even disagree but thats a fact.

as for Dante being the reason would make the trek to INDY..i'll have to say that you're Dante's #1 fan then.

just my two cents..dont mind my rambling
