...one of the things that has always been wrong with that theory that NASCAR is the enemy... and they are... is because the people at NASCAR need to protect NASCAR.

This place isn't easy. It's not supposed to be easy. This place starts the 33 fastest, best-prepared cars. Obviously, I missed.

Wild thought. This 18th Indy 500 means I've been in IndyCar for exactly half of my life. 👀😅

Good morning from the start/finish line at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
