Who Will Win the Indy 500?

The fastest field in history is getting ready for the 86th running of the Indy 500....who do you think will win?

My choice is Gil deFerran!

Not a clue.....just wanted to say that the worst thing the F1 guys ever did was split into 2 camps....CART&IRL....I believe they alienated alot of fans....and this new rule about a CART car not being able to participate in an IRL event,might be the other wat round,but I don't think so.....is even worse

I'll watch the race but the interest is not there. Use to do timing/scoring for IRL and CART. Great to follow all the guys like Tony Stewart etc. Heck, now I can't pronounce or understand most of the jockies they have driving today.
Only winner I see is Tony George.
CART seems to be doomed so the IRL will probably be what's left.
Imagine if the F1 guys were in the field too. Plus some NASCAR drivers(only one and he's already done a dumb move) and road racing guys!! Now that would be interesting.

Unfortunately John Andretti isn't in it, so I would like to see Michael win it. So close so many times...

Sarah Fisher would be an interesting choice.

I don't particularly like seeing Robby Gordon in winston cup cars, so maybe if he did well at Indy he'd leave wc.

Robby Gordon should have stuck to trucks in the desert, not only
was he a winner there, but we didn't have to listen to his inter-
views. He went from a winner to a whinner.

Damm! them 50th aniv cars look good at Indy

Just watching the start of the race. They got about 5 of them pacing the field for the warmup laps.

What the heck is that on the front? An antenna or something?


Too bad I have to go to work soon. I should be home in time to catch some of the coke 600. They had a vert pacecar for the Winston last sat nite. Hopefully they have a vette also tonite.

Looks like that is a camera on the front of the vert pacecar. Nice view they just had from that camera.
