A number of years ago I attended the Indy 500 at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Up to that point, I’d always enjoyed Indy car races. However, after seeing the cars up close and live on the track, watching them on TV lost some of the glamor it once had. Then the Indy car series made a re-appearance at the Watkins Glen road course. As News Director at WACK, that opened the doors for Press Passes to the race. I must admit, I was once again hooked on these fast moving cars.
This weekend, for the fourth time, the Indy Car Series is set to hit the historic track at The Glen again.
Scott Dixon, who’s won the past three races at The Glen, once again topped the speed charts today, Friday, and it looks like he’s primed and ready for what could be his fourth in a row win at Watkins Glen.
I’m heading out to Watkins Glen tomorrow morning for Saturday coverage, and I’ll be back for the race on Sunday too! So, if you’re a racing fan, and if all goes well, stay tuned to my blog as I hope to make some posts along the way live from Watkins Glen during the weekend.
Just my two cents,
Dr. Rus
