The 2006 Bombardier Learjet 500 was an IndyCar Series motor race held on June 10, 2006, in Fort Worth, Texas, at Texas Motor Speedway. It was the sixth round of the 2006 IndyCar Series and the seventeenth running of the event. Marlboro Team Penske driver Hélio Castroneves won the 200-lap race. Scott Dixon, driving for Target Chip Ganassi Racing, finished second, and Dixon's teammate Dan Wheldon finished third. Sam Hornish Jr., who had won the Indianapolis 500 two weeks prior, won the pole position with the fastest overall time of the qualifying session. He led the first lap before being quickly passed by Wheldon, who led 171 of the next 184 laps and only gave up the lead during green-flag pit stops. However, during Wheldon's final pit stop on lap 185, one of his crewmen dropped a lug nut, dropping him back to third in the running order when he rejoined the track. Race leader Hornish Jr. also stalled his engine during his last pit stop on lap 193, giving Castroneves the opportunity to steal the victory which he successfully took. With only two cautions and no crashes from any driver, race winner Castroneves accumulated an average speed of 185.710 mph (298.871 km/h), making this the third-fastest race in IndyCar history (at the time). Castroneves' win was his third of the season and the tenth of his IndyCar career. As a result, he extended his lead in the Drivers' Championship to 22 points over Dixon. Wheldon's dominant performance helped him advance to third over Hornish Jr., while Kanaan placed fifth with eight races remaining in the season.
