Any Race Fans?

Recommended Posts

Are there any race fans that are going to be ready for 1,100 miles of racing tomorrow? Indianapolis 500 and Coca-Cola 600.

Love auto racing. Did a little short track (dirt and asphalt) myself a long time ago.

 

People, not a fan.

Yes, as a race fan, best weekend of the year!
Grew up in the pits at Cajon Speedway; “the fastest 3/8 mile paved oval on the west coast”, of course it was the only 3/8 mile paved oval on the west coast too 😂

We were late for our dinner reservation last night because I watched a race from Bowman Grey last night on a TikTok live, so you know I need to have my head examined 😉

If the rain ever stops...

This is what a 3% chance of rain looks like. 

This better not be be like SPA last year. 

"I never saw a buckin' hoss to top Steamboat. Fact is, he was the closest thing to perpetual motion that ever wore hair. Few men could stand that kind of battering without bleeding from the nose, and most became nauseated as well. Ol' Steamboat put some of the toughest into the hospital for repairs."

Turning into a really interesting race. Leclerc may murder his strategist.

Tell me you’re not one of those guys who stands along the course as those trucks are flying by on the edge of losing control 😳

I started the 1,100 mile journey. Rooting for Jimmy Johnson in the Indy 500. It would of been cool to see him pull double duty. I think Dixon, Carpenter, Kanaan and Sato are the class though.

Would love to see Kanaan win.  Or maybe Grosjean.

I wonder if I can get one of those Honda Indy 500 V6's for my Accord? It only weighs 250lbs and pumps out 750HP when you hit the turbo. It revs up to 12,000 + RPM's. No one would see it coming or going. 😁

What’s been your favorite bike?  What bikes have you run?

Man, make a slight mistake and you're in the wall at 220MPH in a spilt second. Kudos to the engineering that goes into a Indy Cars. Guys walking away is a good thing. 👍

There's a lot people at Indy today. 🤙
