Super Monaco Indy 600 weekend!

We are only days away from what is the greatest race weekend of the year

Monaco Grand Prix
Indy 500
Coke 600

Over 1,250 miles of racing in one day.

I know I have said that I have pretty much put myself on a halt on watching NASCAR races (other than watching the occasional clips of stuff that has happened in races), but considering the weekend, this is the one time I will lax on that (not to mention my girlfriend will want to watch the race anyway).

Who else will hijack TV's and such to watch racing for 14-15 hours of the day?

One day of the year where I won't sleep. (or I might nap before the Monaco race)

Well my plan was to watch the triple, until I found out I have to work 7am to 11am Sunday morning. But I'll still get to see Indy and Charlotte.

LET'S PARTY WITH ALL YO MOTHAS!!!

Was gonna go to Indy this year (I've never actually gone to the 500; didn't have interest in IndyCar before the last year or so) until I realized I have no monies.  Anyways, I've never done the marathon, but I don't have anything going on this weekend, so I might actually try it

My body is ready.

This weekend is gonna be great.
Predictions:
Monaco- Juan Montoya
Indy- Eddie Cheever
World 600- Elton Sawyer

I'll be at Indy as well (my first time, in fact), and I was thinking I'd get up early enough Sunday to catch a good bit of the Monaco race before heading out to the track, considering I'll be staying in a hotel nearby. I'll almost certainly be back in time for Charlotte, I'd think.

I got back to my hotel in Dayton, OH in 2011 on lap 40 of the 600

Naw, it's gonna be (in order) Sir Jack's ghost, Ray Harroun, and Josh Wise.

No No no the winners are going to be

Monaco - Ayerton Senna
Indy - Scott Brayton
Charlotte - Dale Earnhardt

>Australia the country that can sweep the day

Rest of the world are you even trying?

The winners are going to be

Monaco - Ayrton Senna
Indy - Emerson Fittipaldi
Charlotte - Nelson Piquet Jr.

             

I am probably gonna do the 2 and a half. (Indy and Coke 600, since I give a crap about those, and the end of Monoco)

Anyone else think it would be cool if Kurt Busch won the 500 and the 600?

I don't think that he could bribg the 500, but the 600 he can

I thought I was the only Brayton fan on this forum. Good to see that Scott has some supporters out there  


One of CART's most underrated drivers.

I think you missed Madrigal's joke, but that's okay.

Brayton had that big Menard engine behind him those last few years, they were never any reliable, but sure were powerful.

Coolest helmet of the weekend??

It's slick, but it has to compete with this beauty:

Just to let you all know, Danica was ninth fastest in the first practice session for the 600.

First practice results.

She was also fastest in round 2 of qualifying and 4th overall.

It was mentioned at Las Vegas and Kansas that she's been getting tips from Harvick, and it shows.
