1991 Indianapolis 500 Intro

[GOCUBBY]

Gorge messed it up.... Bring back the Horsepower where driving makes a difference. Bring back the day when you push the car to the brink....

[indyfan2]

You know Paul Page himself viewed this video and has to smile and put his post on his blog. His Indy 500 Intros work and the way he did it inspires many fans of this Sport. :)

[racermac1988]

Good to know he still checks out the old videos.

Paul, if you saw my 2008 intro, I hope I did it justus for ya. My goal someday is to have his job. He and Bob Jenkins are my Idols

[Rivelution]

As much as I liked your intro, I have to say Bob Jenkins is pretty boring. But its probably just me cuz I'm picky with commentators lol

[tiburon0676]

Where is his blog?

Paul Page

[racermac1988]

I hope everybody saw that this was aired on ESPN Classic on Saturday afternoon as well as the 1987 race...

Don't worry, I taped them both.

[racermac1988]

As a college student trying to get through final exams, watching these videos one of the only things keeping me sane until the end of them, as well as the anticipation of race day.

[clements22osu]

got me through those finals last week...good luck

[pajasa62]

It was so classy, so dignified, the way ABC-TV used to open the broadcast of the race. The last 5 or so years the opening is usually so pretentious with its dizzying lazers, thunderbolts and over-the-top graphics. Mercifully, I'm going to my first Indy 500 this year and won't have to watch the TV coverage.

Recent Intros

2005=Sucked!

2006=Best one of the modern era

2007=Pretty good and Jeremy Irons did a good voiceover.

and 2008... WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT SHIT? Thank god I made my own intro.

[racermac1988]

The 100th Indianapolis 500 needs a Delta Force Theme, as well as every one up until then.

[clements22osu]

there should be a petition to bring it back!!!!

[JoeytheHDK]

I want them to bring Delta Force for this year's 500, the first unified 500.

[VampireYoshi]

I'm game if you are, and have already begun sending in emails to them.

[IRLIndyCar]

Signed!!! I love it!

[BlueFox284]

Where do I sign. . .???

[delta426e]

Count me in!

[BlueFox284]

Rick Mears. . . FTW.

[ljostarter]

Paul says that Jules Goux drank six bottles of champagne, but according to the Official History of the Indianapols 500 book, that is not true. It is true that he and Emil Begin had a few drinks of bubbly, but not six bottles of it. Donald Davidson suggests it was probably used "as a form of mouthwash."

[HMS24team]

didnt Mears win this won

[racermac1988]

Yes.

[HMS24team]

aight i knew it was either 1990 or 1991

[racermac1988]

No, 1990 was Luyendyk in the fastest 500 ever at 185 MPH...

[HMS24team]

ok thanks

[nadeau1064]

Man, that gave me chills! :)

[racermac1988]

Yes, I knew that. I'm just saying, the Delta Force intros need to be back, period. Especially in 2009, 2011, and 2016

[racermac1988]

Anybody looking forward to 2011 with the 100th anniversary. Hopefully the Delta Force Intros will be back, and we will have one unified, INDY CAR WORLD SERIES. PLEASE TONY AND KEVIN, STOP THE FIGHTING.

[indyfan2]

btw, 100th Anniversary for the Indy-500 that started but definitly not the 100th running. 2016 is the 100th-running of the race. 5 years for WWI & WWII

[IrlJamie]

I was in my mommy's belly at this time =]

Haha, and i bet my daddy was at the race that year, almost every year until i was ten years old, i would watch the Indy 500, just hoping to get a glimps of my daddy in the Grandstand!

I knew where his seat was, and now I can sit in those seats... I am (hopefully) going next year, ill pay for a plane ticket, ill drive myself, ill hitchhike... but next year NOTHING will keep me away from Speedway Indiana =]

[rob251981]

i remember these days listening to it on the radio having a cook out in the park when i was a kid since indy allways block's it out on tv till it's over.

[schrack3000]

Great video. Man do I miss Paul Page calling the 500.

[BlueFox284]

Yeah, last time I saw him on T.V. was a few weeks ago, calling a world wide eating challenge. . . :-/

And holy crap @ Dismore's crash. . .car utterly destroyed

[AutoRacer5]

Paul Page actually does Drag Racing on ESPN 2.

Get him and Unser and Posey back in the booth, dammit!

[BlueFox284]

You know what, you're right, after I posted that last comment, I did see him call a drag race on ESPN. . .

[lostfreakadam]

Damn right!

[sbmrunning]

here! here!

[lostfreakadam]

Agree!

[indyracingnut]

You know, I never thought I'd say this, but I miss the Unser/Posey arguments. Get these three back in the booth!!!

[VampireYoshi]

I don't think Sam Posey can, unfortunately. I think he he's contracted Parkinson's syndrome...but, he still keeps up to date with most everything in motorsports, so who knows if it could be done.

[photog30]

These are the best intros! Paul Page is the best!

[bigskyboiler]

Bring back the Delta Force theme! Seriously.

[apm78229]

Thanks for "saving" Indy FTG!

[zzzbbbccc]

Awesome

[OWfan]

Sweet. Thanks for uploading this.

[MHJanson]

Took long enough to get up, and it's worth the wait!
