I forget that, outside of Indiana, you don’t generally start seeing race driver’s faces popping up on billboards when May rolls around. Regardless of my general feelings about all things mechanical, I do think it’s particularly fab that we have a tradition inherent to our state which is a national phenomenon. There’s a lot of corn around here, no doubt about it, but come the 5th month of the year, the asphalt in Speedway plays host to something truly amazing, and nowhere else on earth can claim that particular history.
