Maddest guy at Indy - Page 2

[QUOTE=Bruce Noland;543671]I think everyone on this site knows that setting a record before Indy and going through a cursory tear down does not entitle a racer to a pass at Indy. There is absolutely no proof that the car is as it was when it was torn down for the record. In fact there is no proof that the car has the same motor in it.

I think I had the same engine that I set the record with. I'm pretty sure that it was after Indy that we put Parson's 327 in it.

Engine out of the car that might be another story...

I always looked at being torn down as a plus, because passing tear down shut up a lot of people..

Just sayin,

PS:
I was also admonished about bold posting being yelling.
So for the future I will only use bold when I want to yell.

Thanks Bob, I was starting to think you were grumpy all the time. LOL

Maddest guy in Indy, after the first round, 64 of them, after that the next 32, then 16 and so on. When it comes down to it tomorrow there will be one happy person and 127 not so happy. Gotta love this sport, it is so brutal.
