Hello from Chicago (Lisle to be exact). It’s a beautiful morning. The moon was still bright just before sunrise.

The day has started off with an EPIC staff meeting as we get ready to promote ethanol with a pump promotion involving several of the IRL drivers in just a couple hours. Then it will be off to the Chicagoland Speedway to get my media credentials for the weekend’s activities, including the race on Sunday.

I’ll have more pictures and some interviews for you later on today.
