So no word on what Vinny said to Strohmeyer in the little talk mid-race?

We discussed a few theories on the latest Media Pit.

I agree I was hoping to get the inside skinny or at least a good conspiracy theory. I think Ian hit it on the nose in commentary when he offered a no-chase agreement.

Any word on why Roullier didn't start day 2?

I think he wasn't feeling good the last two weekends. He seemed tired at Rochester and Charm Day 1.

Regardless if a deal was made pretty much in front of everyone or not. Let's not forget that Strohmeyer kind popped off the group and was left twisting for 4th. But as racing goes he was dealt a nice hand when Ferdinande overcooked it pass the pits on a Curtis attack. He rallied and saw that Curtis and Vinnie B. we're at a stalemate and rejoined. Now where the conversation they had comes into play is when Vinnie let the wheel go in a few corners and Strohmeyer pounced on it. He still needed to have the reserves play that final card, and it worked. So long story short. In my opinion don't let this take the shine off of Strohmeyers win. He is quite deserving. Well done. Feel bad for Curtis pulling out of his pedal in the finale.
