  • Before Michael passed Greg Ray it almost looked like Ray hit the outsidewall a bit, at least he came very close to the wall. Ironicly Team Menards was always good for a Pole but they never were consistant enough to win the race. I remember for example back in 1995 they had the 2 Topspots on the frontrow with Brayton on the Pole but they didn't manage to win the race.

  • You are correct about Ray touching the wall.

  • Of the years during the split, I thought that 2001 was the best of the 500s because it seemed like more and more guys were starting to get some sense in their heads and come back to Indy, then in 2003, ChampCar decided it was gonna go run in Europe and prevent the drivers from even getting a weekend to qualify at Indy.

  • and we all know how well there "Europe" trips turned out... LOL!

  • Paul Tracy is the 2001 Indianapolis 500 Champion....I saw it myself on the IRL's live timing and scoring - should have saved the screenshot, would have made a fortune on the t shirts..

  • Umm.. You mean 2002, right?

    2001 was when Helio won by a land slide.
