I've been watching and following live timing. I've been an Indycar and f1 fan for 25 years. Nascar bores the crap outta me though.

Definitely on my bucket list to go to this race. One of the best days in all of Indiana. Can't wait to watch it next weekend

Apparently I used to go to school with Graham Rahal's girlfriend?

Bump. Carb Day yesterday was a little wet towards the end and it was cool, but the party must go on.

Here’s to a dry race day. Cheers.

My money is on Palou (I know, really going out a limb here lol). Also sprinkled some change on Ferrucci (sp?) and Daly.

Not going this year. It’s been a horrible spring, weather wise, in Indiana. My yard hasn’t been completely dry since before April 1.

It was wet again yesterday but didn’t start raining until the concert. But yes, it’s fucking with my golf game too.

Tomorrow I think there is a window. Nothing worse than a rain shortened race. If it just holds off until 4, we’ll be good.

Hasne used to cover Tech baseball btw. You Ft Wayne natives I’m sure remember her. It was a few years after my time but I heard all about it

Not a fan of Briscoe’s tattoos. Hasne is 10 times hotter.

My father his brother and his father took me to the time trials' never the race
I sometimes regretted not going back then

Indy 500 was once a huge story in the US. Not any more
Indy Car racing is barely alive. As is Indy
once the whole month of May was there
sad

You do realize the 500 is the single biggest one day event in the world every year correct? About 400 thousand people would disagree that the 500 isn’t a huge story

Mmm. There was a time not that long ago. During its worst day it turned out 350k.

thriving now. They’ll be close to a half million there tomorrow.

I’m a homer of course but those helicopters last year was bad ass

Was there to see that. I think if I was in one of the cars that was under them id have to make a quick pit stop for some new drawers. It was fucking badass to witness that
