Speedyman11 continued to dominate the 2015 IndyCar Series schedule after earning his fifth victory during the series' fifth event. Speedy captured the pole award and led 111 of the 120 laps Wednesday night at the Iowa Farming 100 in his #11 HP TMS Wolfpack Honda, ending the night with an incredible two lap lead over second. Spike finished second, led nine laps and was interviewed post race... "We made the best of our limited testing time and brought the fastest Duff Beer Indy car. The extra frothiness of Duff Beer helped out car's speed by making it lighter than our competitors as I may have accidentally emptied a bottle of 'Full of Goodness' Duff into my fuel tank. However we brought the wrong tire combination as the tire's wore prematurely costing us the win." Spike's primary sponsor, Duff Beer, announced this week that they will be launching next year in Chile. Spike's crew chief, Barney, was interviewed post-race but was entirely incoherent. League officials were seen giving Spike a breathalyzer test post-race after reading this interview. KartRacer63, Breeze and Grumpy rounded out the top five finishers while reining series champion ucrdoh retired after 70 laps. As expected Speedyman11 increases his driver championship lead from twenty to twenty-six points over Spike while ucrdoh drops to third - twenty-nine points back. Speedy leads the oval championship by seventeen points over Breeze and eighteen over Spike. TMS Wolfpack leads NH Autosport by twenty-six points points in the team championship and Honda leads the manufacturer championship with five victories while Plymouth and Chevrolet have yet to capture a win.
