That was one of the better starts I've seen in years. It drew a rather loud roar of approval from my section.Tony Johns

Also serves as my desktop wallpaper even though it isn't at wallpaper dimensions.
IMS should hire the best photographer they can, stick him on the roof of the E Stand Box with the best zoom lens money can buy and have him do nothing but take a shot of the race start. Then resize it to all the typical wallpaper resolutions and host on indy500.com as the OFFICIAL race start photo!- Make a note of the word 'Gobbly-gook'. I like it and I want to use it more often in conversation.
--Yes, sir.

I thought the ending was better
"Ninety-two years ago [the Indy 500] was probably like any other race," said 2005 winner Dan Wheldon. "But over time it's just created so many storylines and history for people of our generation that now it's just massive. People value that history and tradition and you just can't take that away."Comment

was it just because of the camera angle or dust but was there still more cars to make the turn?

I just didn't see the cars in 1 a few years ago, I actually felt the thud when Scott Sharp hit the wall. I am in the SW Vista.Get your head out of your past!!!Comment

its all of themOriginally posted by ChampCar#3"I think of Indianapolis every day of the year, every hour of the day, and when I sleep, too. Everything I ever wanted in my life, I found inside the walls of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. I love it all, from the first to the last day in May. The moment that race starts is always the greatest moment of my life, and the day I win that race, it will be as if my life has ended. There is nothing more I could want out of life."

The video is cool, but from personal experience, sitting that low in the Paddock Box is a horrible place to watch the race.Originally posted by pdalbey
By the way, what "shot" was the guy trying to get at the end of that video?
