Coca-Cola 600 live blog coming up... Indy 500 notes...

Junior fans check back when the race starts. I’ll be live-blogging the race. I’ll be tracking pit stops and reporting on s radio channel.

I was bored by the 500. Comedian Jackie Vernon used to say, “I went to a boxing match. A hockey game broke out.” I watched a series of caution laps, and the Indy 500 broke out.

Once Danica was out of the race, so was I. I think all the Indy drivers should follow the Golden Rule: Don’t crash Danica, she brings the gold. I don't care if you’re an Indy car or Open-wheel fan. The hard-core fans -- I hate the term “die-hard"’ -- don't make the sport grow.

See you at the Coca-Cola 600 in a few mins.
