Default Went to my first Indy race

Well last night I was invited to go see an Indy race here in Joliet. Let's just say to me it was B O R I N G!

However I must say that those cars were flying! 232 avg. MPH and when they were 3 and 4 wide they were only inches apart. That was amazing that they held without accidents. I don't have a real high tech camera so I could not get any good shots. Either they were blurred from them going by so fast or dark where I could not see them. I did get the victory smoke show on video. We had awsome seats, right near the start/finish line row 28!

And now I'm having problems getting that video to you!

Sounds cool, I would like to see them just to see them. But it's not my cup of tea either, I see it on TV and I think the only thing I thought was cool was watching the little meter they have on the in car camera showing how much throttle or brake input they use.
