Sounds like March 14th will be a great day next year for you, TK, Mario, Raphael, and, hopefully, Vitor. Hometown boys! Hopefully, my parents will get the message that I want to go to the race at TMS for graduation (I graduate from high shcool on June 4th). Will definately try to come meet you again. Hopefully, there will be no problems with the track tomorrow and you will scale a fence tomorrow night! Awesome news about the schedule for the 2010 season!

Oh well. I'm sure the wet track isn't dampening your spirits. Can't wait for tomorrow night's race. Let's see if you can improve your position from last week and get the win you would've gotten last year if you hadn't run out of gas (and if Dixon hadn't been so close behind you). Have fun tomorrow night, be safe, and go for the win! Even if you are a longshot at the title, you can take gambles Dixon, Dario, and Ryan can't and go for some wins and climb some fences.

We are all packed and ready to leave in the morning for Kentucky. So looking forward to watching the qualifying and practices for both Indy Car,Indy Lights (We're rooting for Anna in the Indy Lights)as well as fanfare. I'm going wear the shirt I wore to the Indy 500 that you, Kati and Eduardo thought was pretty cool. Hope the weather is good this weekend. Take care,Drive Safe but FAST,See Ya tomorrow. In Oct. Tom and I will be driving on the same track. BIG HUG from Rhonda Hi Helio,

I finally got to watch the race and have to say that the pass you made on Dixon was the only positive excitement in the entire race. I asked my husband, who watched the race earlier than I did, what he thought and he also thinks that was the only racing highlight. I'm looking forward to a more exciting race this weekend. I hope you're okay with your 2nd place finish. In your post race interview you seemed a little bit solemn to me. I'm sure you have already thrown what was affecting your mood at that moment off your back and you're focused on your next race. Don't give up on those points yet, Helio. Considering all things affecting your standing this season, you are still a race leader to me. Best Wishes! for a great race next weekend. I'll be cheering for you from my sofa. Peace be with you. ~kelly Hi Helio! I finally got to watch the race and have to say that the pass you made on Dixon was the only positive excitement in the entire race.

At least it's a teammate who is on P1 though I rather had you on first position. As you always say, P2 is also good. THAT WAS A GREAT PASS YOU DID ON SCOTT - HOORAY!!! Very sorry to hear about Tony's accident. I'm praying that that will be the end of his bad luck! I'm looking forward to another win for you in Kentucky this Saturday. Win , race fast but safe!!! Everything adds up to your total points for the leaderboard. BTW - you are the greatest PR guy in IRL! I hope the Canadians love you now that you came up with that shirt! Hugs from your So CA fan.

Helio, I'm happy to hear that you had a podium finish and I'm anxious to watch the pass on Dixon mentioned by some other fans. I am away from home and won't be able to watch the race until Thursday when I return. For that reason I've stayed away from my temptation to see the race results before I could watch. Then I was informed of Tony's burns and Felipe Massa's serious injury during Formula One qualifying, I couldn't stop myself from searching out what happened to each of them and to follow up on their current status. As hard as I tried to find an article only about Tony, it revealed the race results from the beginning. I'm glad he is going to be okay and Thank God for Team Penske's pit crew's fast action. I plan to search for today's update on Felipe's condition. My heart just broke when I heard what happened to him. The strangest things can create so much danger in racing. I don't think I've ever heard of anything like what happened to him. My prayers are with him and his family at this time. My daughter's back and needs her laptop back. Excuse any typos as I'm unaccustomed to the keyboard. Once more, Congratulations on you podium finish. Kelly, Tucson, AZ.

We were yelling for you to go. You passed perfectly. Will did a great job also. Team Penske 1 and 2 was great. Too bad Ryan wasn't in the mix. He had a great race also. We would have loved for you to be #1 but #2 is fabulous. Have a great week and see you next week at Kentucky. Take Care =) Dave and Deb Hi Helio,
