Oooooohhh... I'm so excited!!!! (by the hype) What's he gonna do...win it in the first 100-150 miles??? That being, I guess I'll be able to catch the UFC from Sweden after all. Thanks "Alonso" (media?)..... If that's the case, I'll drink to that....
Alas, the race is yet to run. Numbers and speed in practice is one thing. 500 race miles is another. There were only 3 (Penske) Mercs in '94 but one was the winner....
Was it '95 that Penske actually missed the mark with the new car? Sad day for the "Captain". But I recall some Mercs (with reduced boost 'cause of their domination in '94) still made the field. Kizdan was talkin' engines. edit: Yeah, just checked. It was the PC24 that let Penske's record get tarnished.They just couldn't get it up to speed. There were 5 Mercs in the race, the best being Rahal in 3rd. 1 in '96 Davey jones finished 2nd. And 8 of the 27 car field in the U.S. 500 that same day (the split of CART/IRL) were Mercs; best of which was Eddie Lawson (yeah, the biker...) in 6th.
Satellite imagery shows a lot of energy moving eastward towards Indianapolis. Perhaps best to plan for today to be a rain out and they'll race tomorrow (Monday). BHW Image Unavailable, Please Login
