Crews from various driving teams competed to see which one can service their car the fastest in the Pit Crew Challenge, just one of several events today at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway’s Carb Day. These crews are so good that I barely had time to point my camera before they were done…with the car smoking it’s tires as the crew finishes.
I had late morning appointments so I arrived at the track after the Firestone Freedom 100 was over and just in time to see the finish of the pit crew competition. However the main attraction, at least for me, was to see ZZ Top whom I had never seen live before. It wasn’t the best venue, but where could you possibly see them for just a gate admission of $10? There were LOTS of people already waiting for them to begin, but it was amazing how close to the stage I got with a polite “Excuse me please. Thank you”. I thought Billy, Dusty and Frank sounded great. Those boys can Rock n’Roll! I was wondering how many times they have played some of those same songs over the 40+ years they have been together. Looked like they are still enjoying it.
