Getting drenched by the rain that fell before the Firestone Indy Lights race on Sunday at Mid-Ohio was worth the wetness, because of the amazing roostertails kicked up by the cars.

Right you are! I've seen those tails a few times at Portland (Oregon) International Raceway. It's always interesting to see how the race strategies change when the rain comes out.

I was at turn 1 by the Porsche hospitality area where everyone seemed to be having problems during this race. Pretty interesting. Nice shots.

He definitely did look happy. But then I guess it would be pretty hard to be when you spin out on the last lap when you have a lead.
