  • God the cars look ugly !!!

  • Man, this footage is so grainy, it looked like it was filmed during the 1970's.

  • From what I heard Jim Guthrie lost some of his toes in the crash

  • @Rummenigge11 And Luyendyk? xd Doesn't matter what sort of a engine lies in the car, look at poor Wheldon. Autosport will always be dangerous and it takes balls to drive one car.

  • The guy that hit really hard was Jim Guthrie and he never returned to open wheel racing after this crash to my knowledge.

  • Crap drivers, crap teams. Indy from 1996 to 1999 was a second-rate race with winners like Lazier, Cheever...

  • @Frigus5 I agree.

  • @LostHighwayFilms I agree. Many people say 'fuck Tony George'. Hell, if you asked me, he saved it. CART would have killed itself sooner or later had there been no IRL. Then what would we have done?

    So before you cuss out Tony, think about what could have happened. CART killed itself. I love the sound of turbos and the look of the Lolas and Reynards. But CART had been making some dumb decisions.

  • RIP the old IRL

  • Sam Schmidt wasnt injured in this crash. He was injured 2 years later in a testing crash at the Walt Disney speedway.
