    Most bizarre thing about PT after Champ Car folded, was him driving for Tony George's "Vision racing"

    No one's gonna believe this, but I just watched the 2009 Milwaukee Race yesterday in order to remind myself what races at the Milwaukee Mile used to look like. And today you talk about that exact race. What are the chances?!

      What's funny is that this script is old. I originally wrote this in early January and wanted to release it a few weeks later. It's odd how stuff like that works out

    Paul Tracy declared he'd never race IRL after the 2002 Indy 500 debacle. Retirement said otherwise. Always a capricious character

      Well his options were about as minimal as the menu of a pizza place in Louisiana. Not a lot of options, and nothing you really want.

      He also got stooged by Gerald Forsythe. After reunification Gerry wouldn’t release his contract even though he made it quite clear he was never going to enter a car. Paul had to go through the courts to get released.

      I saw Paul about a month ago. He looked like a giant beach ball with legs .

    A.J. seems like he asked to Tracy to leave because he was embarrassed for the car performance and he simply said something like "Look, I would have continued with you. But the car is just not fast, we leave you free and we don't wanna waste your time until we make a car capable to go fast enough".

      That's fair. AJ Foyt equipment back then was just about the worst equipment in the indycar world

    If you think about it, Dan Wheldon sacrificed his career and life for Dario Franchitti

    • @Saturn185
      @Saturn185 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      in the same logic Paul Tracy did the same for Dan Wheldon, as Wheldon only got hired by Andretti Green because Tracy went to Forsythe in order to stay in Champcar at the time

      And Helio-Castorneves literally signed Greg Moore's contract after the latter's death, leading to victory on the track and tax problems off-track.

    He called it a crap wagon and couldn t wait to get outta the car.
