The short time I listened Robin Miller was asking Scott Dixon if Scott would allow Robin to follow him around the F1 paddocks and "oogle" at all of the female groupies following Scott. Then the annoucers went into some fantasy about Jeff Gordon getting the Williams seat.
What a couple of bafoons.

best racing show on the radio.
Interviewd Dixon and Carp with Patreek giving his side of the Forsythe story and Scott telling tales of testing a proper racing car.
I'm not sure if they archive it or not but Cam ussually captures it with some form of computer magic.

Robin pretty much summed up Chip Ganassi
He knows he's not in a very good series... but he can't say much about that because he's in too deep.. He doesn't spout the Kool Aid, but he drinks it enough to keep himself confused ! ;)
What he said about the small IRL teams was sad... "They should work harder to get Sponsorship like he did .... They are out there!!"
Well Chip ... WHY DON"T YOU HELP THEM IF IT'STHAT EASY
He is totally out of touch
And Ank ... You are absolutely right !! :thumbup:

The best moments of the show just might have been when RM was doing a mock-CG voice, such as during the numerous mentions of CG's Christmas parties, and offering to be his friend for one year, for a nominal $250,000.
You just kind of got a sense of how much these guys don't really care much for one another.

Typical Ganassi. I'm in it for myself and only myself. No thoughts or idea's for the future nor wanting to take any responsibility at all for the direction of the sport. Geez, if his lips were any tighter on the Toyota teet his eyes would pop out of his head. :shakehead
Actually that was good for the cause.
I'm sure the gomers loved his "too ****ing bad" (nb. not a quote) statement regarding the plight of the small teams.... :)
I also like the F1 part. If you're not part of the club, you don't get to race. Uhh.. Chip... Isn't that how the earl is operating these days??

Unfortunately Bobby Unser is a Moron.....
Great Racer in his day .... but a Moron!
Moron is a bit harsh ... Dufus instead
Uncle Bobby was a card carrying bad ass at IMS
Look up the word "smooth" during the Gurney era, and it continued with Fletcher and Penske

05-17-04, 08:48 PM
I'll be buying Bobbies book.. like the Racer ... Want to read that History
My Moron Dufus reference was his idea of saving the Indy 500 ... Have Tony get 15 people of differing talents together to form a "Think Tank"
Unfortunately Bobby is just as stubborn & Bullheaded as TG!
Brilliant Bobby .... form a committee ... TG doesn't do committees!
Step one in fixing Indy - Tony George Resign !
Just got done editing it..... Will be interesting to listen to it tomorrow! :D
fourrunner
really, the book is not that good. Do an ebay search if you really must own it. The racing is pretty thin, just antidotes which Bobby tries to relate to the racing world. Its hard to read knowing what you know about the guy
Yes, the "think tank" idea was pretty absurd.
Most of these older famous racers will benefit if Indy can regain its lustre. Right now there is no money to schmooze with, cause Tony ran it all off. When there are only 8K to 10K there for pole day, it makes their accomplishments look like nobody cares.
which come to think of it, very few do........

I think I'll drop by Barnes & Noble one evening and brouse through it instead.
I never gave the "Alumni" idea a thought... The Shine goes off Indy & their value declines also.... No wonder he made the pronouncement that OWRS won't succeed... But then again considering how incredibly bad his other life decisions have been ( marriages, snowmobiling in "forbidden areas"). I think OWRS will be just fine!! :thumbup:
Used to love the two nudnicks Bobby Unser & Sam Posey arguing & spitting nails at each other in the booth at Indy so many years ago....

Most of the show was ate up with Indy jokes and power outages, throw in BEast jr and Eric Gordon and it really didn't have much for F1/ChampCar fans.
Being in a local bar with the Pacer game in the background didn't exactly help matters either.
not one of their better efforts for folks around here.

This week's broadcast theme seemed to be local Indiana dirt track hotshoes that should be in the 500 but are not. Klink and Burkholder shtick should be given the heave hoe. The Klink impressions are not that convincing, and the humor is reaching at best. But Robin is great as usual.
