Stewart Kisses the Bricks at Indy


Tony Stewart took his second victory at the famed Indianapolis Motor Speedway on Sunday. This was also his second victory in as many races. A win at Indy is extra special for Smoke, growing up 30 miles from the speedway.
The race had many multi car wrecks on Sunday, which is uncommon for this track. Tony dominated most of the day. For a while it looked Like Dale Earnhardt Jr. had a car to beat, but Tony didn't let that happen. Later in the race Jr. blew an engine and was a non-factor.
Late in the race, good friend, Kevin Harvick took the lead from Stewart. Stewart still had a better car and after being blocked by Harvick several times, Tony traded a little paint with him and took the lead back. Harvick was none to please and got into him one more time before Smoke pulled away to take the win. On the cool down lap, Happy Harvick hit Stewart, almost pushing him into Redd Sorenson. Harvick was immediately called the the NASCAR hauler for a post race discussion. All in all, it was another great race at Indy.
