NOTES:

I didn't see this race in person, so qualifying/finishing orders are poached from Autosport, as is first retirement (Carpentier) and pole position (Gugelman, whom nobody has on their team).

If someone can tell me who set the fastest lap, I will add that point in.

People who have not substituted for Nikolas have Memo Gidley on their teams, which has done some teams a lot of good in this Wonderland race.

MRS. FIELDS PIES TEAM PENSKE BABE PRESS RELEASE

The boys did as well as they could, in making up for a terrible day of qualifying and receiving maximum points for moving up the grid during one of the stranger races of the year. We are hoping it does not rain at Toronto, which is the home race of the Race Commissioner, but we don't have a lot of hope. Last year's race had a wet qualifying and a dry race, which was even worse, and Champion Gil de Ferran ended up in the hospital tent after qualifying last year in Toronto.

Anyway, we are better pleased than we were in Portland and the boys are off to get haircuts, new hats, and fleeces to prepare themselves for Toronto, and everyone is practicing their French at dinner time.

We expect a Team Penske Babe 1-2-3 at Toronto.

TEAM DOMAZA RACING NOTES

Dario finally took the win and he made it in STYLE.

To Liz:

1) You missed that race? Whatta miss it was - so good (great) race it was!
2) You can check fastest lap time on cart.com -> RESULTS-> FAST LAP. As it appears fastest guy was R.Moreno, he was furious after Herta's mistake I quess

That was the race of the YEAR so far and we are also happy to announce that we haven't been outside TOP 8 yet in race standings (we started racing when some races already were over due to we had some problems with our sponsor "RUMBA" )
