Agreed, it was a recipe for disaster, especially for Dale Coyne and Ed Carpenter, who lost both cars. However, it was exciting stuff to watch and there in lies the rub.

Thanks for the reminder about the track resurfacing and fair point. Still frustrating from the tire manufacturer; they should've done better.
This was like plate racing. White knuckles, followed by lots of totaled machines. It's lost it's appeal, imho.
