I remember a few months ago this topic came up. The 42 team gambled on fuel milage and won. Randy.

I do not make a habit of watching NNC races, but I did try to keep up with this one simply because I like the road courses. So many cautions (do you really need 3 laps of full course caution to remove a single piece of debris?) and commercials early on that I wandered off and kept up periodically. I did watch the last dozen laps, and was happy to see Montoya do so well, without controversey too. Felt sorry for Robby Gordon, but I guess he fell victim to fuel strategy as much as Montoya was a beneficiary.

The Rolex GT race from Mid-Ohio was a GOOD one - the only other race I watched today.

Yeah, the win was great to see, but dang it, I totally forgot about and missed the Rolex GT race last night! DARN IT!!!

How was it?
