RE: I miss my car!
You're right, Indy is a far cry from the past, and I new this already. Normally I attend the Brickyard 400 (now called something else) but I am going to Watkins Glen that weekend this year so I came here instead. It's still a good time (I do other stuff here besides go to the race), and the race should still be entertaining....although, right now its a potential rain-out and I might miss it anyway!!!

Well, I don't have much choice...the Shelby GT is my car, so I have to drive it, and leave it wherever necessary...I just can't worry about it...

Since 9/11, I notice that the security at airports is really stepped up. They have a system where they take a picture of license plates of every vehicle that drives up to the terminals. If I was a thief, the last place I would try to lift a car would be the airport. Relax and enjoy the race.

The sad part is that you actually went to Indy to watch a race that once was the premier event in motorsports. Now its nothing more then a 2.5 hour Honda commercial.I made a promise to myself, never attend the race until they smarten up and once again make it a race that allows creativity of racers to dream up ways to go fast. Multiple manufacturers, and some Amercian factory cars. Every freaking car except two are those Italian chasis.
NASCAR blows,Indy blows, all thats left is NHRA. And its just a matter of time before the corporate world screws that up as well.

What really sucks is that at this moment, the race has all of 28 laps in and there has been 8 sets of commercials.
What ever happened to actually WATCHING a race????

But, gotta admit, when they actually ARE showing the race, looks great in HD!!!
