My brother, some friends, and I agreed we would make one final trip to the Indy 500 next year, it will be the one hundredth running of the 500, and after forty of those, it'll be a nice way to end my experience of the Memorial Day classic.

Hi Fax,

the 100th edition of the Indy 500 is on my agenda too - but it will be my first visit. Hope I can ask you some questions about the race

Best

Werner

Hi Werner,
Absolutely, any way I can be of help, feel free to ask. It's going to be quite a celebration next May.
My first year was 1972, the days of unlimited turbo boost, and barn door sized wings. The speeds jumped from the mid 170's in 1971 into the mid 190's by 1972. Remarkable days.

As long as me bleeding Gout does not flare up whilst I am down there i'll be ok. The thought of trying to walk round the circuit with a throbbing foot give's me shudders.  :-[ . I sound like a right old git..

My 50th Le Mans will be in 17 years time when I will be 68, it will also be the 100th Le Mans. once I reach that milestone I will make a decision.
