Title: Indycar
Post by: Rich on May 24, 2023, 04:03:22 PM
Indy 500 on the deck for this weekend.  Some interesting storylines in qualifying, the first year for someone to be "bumped" from the field in many years.

Good story about AJ Foyt here, a true RBA

Good story.

Dan Gurney, Parnelli Jones and A.J.Foyt, icons of the Golden Era of racing.

Kyle Larson will give it a go this weekend as long as the weather holds up in Indy.  He stands a chance, but the Penske cars seem faster than his McLaren.  If he can pull off the win it would just be incredible.  One of the biggest feats of any driver in the last 50 years.

I was excited for the 500 this year, but the delay killed it for me. I watched Monaco and then had to go do other stuff, couldn't wait for hours for the rain to go away.

I completely missed it along with all other Indy races this year... I did watch some of the parade around Monaco
