That was great TV, contrived or not. Switched over from a golf major to watch!
“But the team and Harvey made the decision to make one final, desperate run without the luxury of cooling the engine. Harvey crossed the line to make that last run with seconds remaining on the clock and bumped Rahal Letterman Lanigan teammate Graham Rahal out of the field by 0.004s.”

I switched back in time after rahal got edged out by 1/100th of a mph they said to see Block hit the hole in one in the fly. I've never seen that before, amazing.
Ugh, I hate the qualifying gimmicks that go on now to make fake drama.
Indycar decided on the fly you can’t change chassis today? WTF? (In case you’re in the dark, Rahal wanted to change chassis last night…Indycar denied it. Illot changed chassis 2 days ago.)
Please, go back to 3 strikes against a car. Make the runs matter.

And just like that, Graham Rahal is back in. Big Brain time from Dad Bobby, arranging for Legge to punt Wilson so son Graham gets a ride!
I saw the response from Legge, which made no sense. She thought she saw cars checking up so she downshifted and hit him in the ass.
Rahal has to shift from Honda to Chevy
Lots of wheeling and dealing to get sponsorships in line, I'm sure.

Rahal back in Indy 500 field, replaces hurt Wilson
Graham Rahal will get a chance to keep his Indianapolis 500 start streak intact after all, replacing the injured Stefan Wilson in the Dreyer & Reinbold entry.

The irony is he's ending up in a better car. He owes Harvey a beer for bumping him.
I remember when Foyt still built the Gilmore Specials in Houston … and Gilmore Oil sponsored the happy hour telecasts On broadcast television … today’s spec. chassis lacks the romance of doing it yourself.
Totally agree and one of my biggest Indycar gripes. At least nascar uses different front ends.
Have 2 in E stand since 1996; top row in the sun just after the penthouse ends. Love those seats. Can stand up on my seat as much as I want without anyone to complain. However, I now have a five year old who loves racing so I had to pick up three together so he could go. Splurged on paddock penthouse right across from pagoda because I think he will love seeing pit action and pre-race ceremonies from that spot.
24 Hours to green flag …. After the obligatory flyover …. And back home again in Indiana.
Weather will be warm but not too hot.
Only negative … the Purdue Marching Band.

Not a popular opinion here, but they are pretty good. I'd still like to run my TG9300B all over that dumbass drum.
Yea great day man overcast almost till the end. Watched the first 50 laps, went for a great walk by the pagoda, and snake pit, wife and daughter stayed at the truck while I went back to watch the finish, crazy man. Love the 500, nothing else like it.
I did the infield and sat in the middle of the 2nd and 3rd turns. Today was the first time I've been to the 500 since I was a kid. Didn't get sunburnt, which is a minor miracle. Scantily clad females were nice. Saw a lot of PU folk, so I was kind of disappointed that I didn't wear a Fairleigh Dickinson shirt. Really nice day and experience: 500 is special.
This is that lady that owned the car. I think Roger should buy her a new vehicle just based on her effing awsome raceday outfit.

She definitely should have held out for more than kissing the fkn bricks
Hard to be an Indy 500 at my age and not appreciate all the guys who raced sprint cars while winning multiple 500s Foyt, Rutherford, Unsers, Jones, etc...
Great documentary about Stan Bowman, who beat all if them in sprint cars.

Makes me think of that show about the waitress, with the super annoying one... "Kiss my bricks!".
Was it One Day at a Time?
Yeah, I was ad libbing for the situation; "kiss my bricks" just stirred up that memory.
Hey, give that IMS President credit. The tire f's up her car and he winds up getting her down on her knees and kissing something. Sounds like boyfriend material for her!
A bad decision from the jump to allow a sponsor to buy his way behind that wheel. Most good decisions were made after that but now we see a Basketball player behind the wheel. Fortunately no incidents
And just to set the record straight. Jewel's was far from the best rendition i have heard but hardly "disrespectful" and one hell of a lot better than Steven Tyler who screeched and rewrote the words.
