It was “drivers start your engines.”! Get it right. 😜
Went to the Sunday race last year. Really enjoyed it. Our youngest boy was so inspired he will soon learn to maintenance IndyCars as part of his degree.
That’s cool. What type of program is out there to learn how to maintain these Indy cars?
I dislike motor sports and Hy Vee, and therefore hope all the drivers and everyone in the luxury boxes die a fiery death.
Sweat. Hot weather. Day star. Hillbilly car racing. Loud. Really loud. Busch light. Coors light. Concrete. Drunk hillbillies.
In the least uppity way possible…no thanks.

He already has his auto technician degree taking community college classes during high school, and now he’s going for an Aviation Maintenance Science degree, which he can do an IndyCar apprenticeship with after.
It's funny when they throw down on each other. They're like jockey fights. Then a tire guy from each team scoops them up like a small child and carries them away.
Steve Kinser was a giant by race car standards. He was a sprint car legend and ran the Indy 500 in the mid 90s when the IRL split happened. Apparently the new chassis' built to the IRL specs were large enough for him to actually fit into, or he would have done it much earlier in his life like many other Midwestern sprint car guys have.
How was the concert last night with ZBB and Carrie? Doesn’t Ed and Kenny play today after the race?
ZBB is right now. Ed is after.
I can smell the BO through my phone screen.

Hmm. See Zach Brown full set on a stadium tour or 11:00 AM show on what looks like a side stage
I'd much rather see him in a large venue. They were really good but had an hour to play and it was on a mobile stage.
It's on a semi. They pulled it in front of the track and then moved it for the race. It's basically as good as can be giving the circumstances.
Ferentz did the command to start engines for the race today (Sunday)
Maddie Poppe did the anthem.

You can't be serious though I do wish a car would decapitate two or three users on here. And like Jude Law in Road to Perdition, I show up as they are taking their last breaths and ask them to smile for the camera...
Not sure why these events are having identity crises these days. The John Deere Classic did that this year. They sold out their tickets, which in my many years of going to that event wasn't a thing. I was taking the kid for his first time and it was a last minute decision and it was actually tricky to get some. The grounds were far from capacity during the day for golf but people were pounding in the gate at the end that bought them only for Darius Rucker. They definitely weren't the golfing type.
John Deere couldn’t give away the tickets to their own employees before Rucker and Shelton. They made it a hot ticket. It worked for us Daughter got cheap tickets via John Deere and corporate tent access with snacks and beverages. Wife enjoyed the concert.
John Deere just throws millions and millions at this even. I am sure it’s a flash point for the union to say they have more to give.

I felt bad for the people who bought the hyvee tickets at full price. How is the race attendance anyways?
