: great vid. Being a former race diver myself I understand this. You must push the envelope, test limits, go over the edge, then pull back a touch. It takes balls. Those guys have very large ones. The greats!

Here is one of the best pieces of racing footage ever assembled.
: Some of you may be road racing purists. I tend that way but come
: to Indianapolis and watch the cars which were meant to run here
: and which test this track and I think you will understand. There
: is no place like Indy just as there is no other Le Mans or
: Monaco.

: As AJ Foyt who has won everywhere says "You got a bunch of
: brave heros out there (who) say thery're not scared of
: nothin'...all I can say is they've never run fast enough or
: they've never been hurt". Watch them come into turn one at
: 235mph (378kph) and you will shiver even if they don't.
