Okay, I’ve done slightly better races myself, most of it is track legal, and the first thing they teach you in racing school is to use the entire track, and not be afraid to do whatever it takes, and clever. anywhere on that track to help you take advantage, overtake another car, or get out of the way when necessary. Of course, there are other racing basics like; have the best pit crew, drive the best team, use the best tires, and have the best sponsors with the best money to back you up.

Memorial Day weekend in 2011 turned out to be a very interesting day in racing history, and it seemed like more lessons were learned and races won due to prudent decision making and working with the fundamentals. At the Indianapolis 500, at the final corner, the leader lost control of his Formula 1 car as he passed and rolled a slower car, hit the wall and slid toward the finish line. However, he was passed by the second car to win the race.

Recently, on May 30, 2011, an interesting article on “The 95th Indianapolis 500 – While the Leader Turns” was published before the weekend titled “Wheldon’s Wall Win – Last Turn Crash by Rookie. Let’s Veteran Win Indianapolis 500 “by Paul Newberry of the Associated Press, and I read my copy of this article in the online version of The Desert Sun MyDesert [dot] com.

Of course, not to be left behind, NASCAR had a great race too, but how could they top that? Well, the leader ran out of gas, entering the last corner, and without any throttle he slipped to the finish line, but was also passed by the second rider. Yes, this was the next day.

In fact, NASCAR also had a last minute turn of events, the race leader ran out of gas in his car, can you believe it? There was a great article in USA Today titled; “Hey conspiracy theorists, NASCAR put on a good show” by Jenna Fryer (AP Auto Racing writer and a good at that, I might add). This article was also published on May 30, 2011. The article read;

“The longest race of the season seemed destined to be a dream. Instead, the suspense started early and extended to the checkered flag, which was for Kevin Harvick when Dale Earnhardt Jr. ran out of gas on the final lap. the way it could have been better for NASCAR would have been if Earnhardt had actually won and snapped his 105-race losing streak. “

Look, if you want to be great at car racing, there are a few things to remember, like:

1. You can’t wreck your car,
2. You can’t run out of gas,
3. You should never give up,
4. Racing fans should never leave until the fat lady sings,
5. You never know what can happen, and that’s a race.

In fact, I hope you will please consider all of this and think about it, and remember these wise words, because they weren’t cheap, and anyone with that level of experience will realize that you can’t take anything for granted in auto racing.
