The last contestant in today’s tractor race was Tanya Tucker. Boy did the crowd love her.
Mr. New Holland West Kentucky

Michael Peterson Booth
Back at the convention center the Michael Peterson booth had a long line this afternoon. People lined up for a picture and an autograph.
Bellamy Brothers On Stage
On the Riverfront stage this afternoon we had the Bellamy Brothers. They’re celebrating 30 years together and still sound great.

Indy 500 Underway
Just in case you haven’t been looking at Domestic Fuel I’ll give you this post from the start of the Indy 500 today. I’ll have more later today or tomorrow depending on what happens during the race (or the finish!).
Today has been a relatively quiet day here in Indianapolis. Except for the annual parade that is. This fine looking group found a shady spot to watch. Included in the picture are Pit Stop Competition
I’ll leave you today with a short video clip of one of the highlight events here on Carb Day at Indy. It’s the Checkers/Rally’s Pit Stop Competition.
