This is Capps' 19th Indy start, but he has gotten out of round 1 just seven times in his prior 18 starts here. This is Head's second Indy start and he survived round 1 last year. This is only the third time these two have lined up against each other, evenly split at 1-1. The only time they met in round 1 prior to today, Head won, at Bristol last year.

Good side-by-side race. Capps got a small advantage at the green and held that lead the rest of the way for the win.

Ron Capps' incremental margins: 60ft(0.014), 330 ft(0.024), 660ft(0.026). MOV: 0.0276 seconds (approximately 13 feet).
