SCENE & HEARD

Kasey Kahne was the last man to emerge from the pit-side bathrooms to head to his racecar, as the national anthem ended, and four fighter jets reprised, in solo runs, their initial four-man pass.
Kahne stopped behind pit road, amidst a crowd of bystanders, craned his head and watched the single passes in rapt manner. I had to wonder if, at any point, he ever wished he was "up there" at that moment, instead of "down here?"
Enjoy the race!
