Marco Andretti...Indy 500
I just got off the phone after a Biff Cast style conversation. He is so much fun. I am so proud of him. I private coached him in his career to do INDY and taught his 3 day racing school. I coached him all season in www.skipbarber.com. Marco is the real deal . I am so proud of what he did, and I actually have to take credit for another coaching job. Marco, join FG??? I am going to get Marco(2nd place INdy 500) to join, he digs RC... Marco ran 2nd, but was leading and damed near won!!!!!!!!

Re: Marco Andretti...Indy 500
I thought Marco had it won. He needs to kick his pops in the pants because he could have done a better blocking job

Re: Marco Andretti...Indy 500
Marco did it with style. He could have blocked, however the out come may not have been a win the way he wanted it.
One of the best Indy's in many many years.

Re: Marco Andretti...Indy 500

Re: Marco Andretti...Indy 500
The Draft at Indy with the Indy wings is about 7 mph differential...
