Race Summary: Tony Kanaan and Dan Wheldon dueled until the first pit
stop when Kanaan and his teammate Danica Patrick made contact during
the stop and Kanaan lost several laps due to repairs. The only other
car that could run with Wheldon for the remainder of the race was teammate
Scott Dixon until Dixon was brought in for a penalty for entering the
pits improperly. Wheldon dominated the remainder of the race which finished
under caution after a solo crash by Scott Sharp with 2 laps to go. This
race made history as it was the first major open-wheel race to feature
three female drivers: Patrick, Sarah Fisher, and rookie Milka Duno.
It also registered the highest average speed of any race at Kansas Speedway.
