Re: Indy 500 Ticket Pricing For 2016

Still a pretty good deal compared to the other top tier sporting events in the world.

Re: Clauson at indy

The guy who came up with the idea for the new aero package should be out of a job. Once again, trying to fix something that isn't broke.

Re: Clauson at indy

ABC said that morning qualifying will be on ESPN 3 or ESPN Watch. Are either of those on cable?

Re: Bloom in high spirits for 2015 season

I started rooting for Jeff Bloom when I was a teen-ager. I'm well into my 50's now and I still can't think anyone I would rather see behind the wheel. A class act and one hell of a racer.

Re: Bigelow vs. Darland

Both USAC champions are quite at home on dirt, or pavement. Midgets, Sprints, or Silver Crown. I recall my dad pointing out how Tom always thanked the fans. I have similarly reminded my son how...

Re: 24 years.....Rest in peace my Friend

No one ever drove a race car like Rich. It always makes me smile to find young fans who know all about him through dad's stories.

Re: Terre Haute Wed July 16th

Hard to describe the sound and excitement of sprint cars on the great 1/2 mile Action Track. The place really hasn't changed too much since my first visit in 1965. The old guard rails are gone;...

Re: Gary Lee

So very sad to learn of Gary's passing. His voice and commentary will always be associated with many of our favorite racing memories. The people are what keeps us coming back; Gary Lee was one of...

Re: Favorite ISW Moment/Memory

Just noticed your Thunder video. Thanks for posting this. It wasn't quite 10 laps but holding off Yeley and Elliott for two with a flat is still my favorite ISW memory. Great hearing Larry Rice's...

Re: Favorite ISW Moment/Memory

Correct me if I'm wrong; but didn't he drive the last 10 laps with a flat left front?

Re: Whitewater Valley Info

I was there maybe 25 yrs. ago. If I'm not mistaken it was part of the USAC/CRA co-sanctioned series. Seems like they put on a great show. Of course, with the drivers from those two series I'd have...

Re: No Regrets: 20 Years Later

Robbie loved Winchester; He was so good there. I always think of his many wins and how quickly he mastered the high banks. Every time I go to Salem I think of Rich. Not of the end, but of the many...

Re: The 500

Great race, but disappointed as well. Would have loved to see Ed racing for the win at the finish. I was sitting in B Stand and not an empty seat from beginning to end.

Re: congrats Dave Darland

Great to be present to see the master win his 50th at the Action Track. Patient; then made his move at just the right time. Nobody does it better than DD.

Re: Terre Haute Action Track Wednesday May 21st

A good cold beer in the parking lot at the Vigo County Fairgrounds is better than sitting at home; rain or no rain.

Re: USAC Champ Cars at Indy!

I'm not giving up on pavement racing quite yet. I remember several years in the early 80's when we had no pavement racing at all. All of a sudden in '86 or so we get Thursday Night Thunder and...

Re: Hewitt T-Shirt

Still have my old #63 Bob Hampshire JWH Hewitt shirt with the cigarette pocket (well used in those days). Doesn't fit very well any more; but wouldn't part with it for love or money.

Re: Changing the Tradition of Being Oblivious (Indycar)

I hope it works; I get the idea of ramping up interest early in the month. However, I've been a race fan in this area for almost 50 yrs. and really don't know many people who like road racing. What...
