Im so glad IndyCar is returning to there glory with the cart style aero kit. They're moving in a great direction.

I’m grateful, super grateful to have these wonderful 1980s IndyCar races to watch but why in the world was so much cut out of this race? We didn’t even get to the halfway point and then all of a sudden we are racing to the finish? We didn’t even get to see Mario Andretti’s crash in turn one...

[@ror312gallery19]

agreed. this was my ist time back since 1978,,,cheers from italy rick,!

"why in the world was so much cut out of this race?" because NBC only showed a hour highlight show for the race. i don't think they ever did flag to flag for pocono like they did for michigan when they had both races.

[@rickravon6845]

@@xSoccerxCorexincorrect. They went flag to flag in 1985 and 1986. I know they didn’t in 1987, although that was ESPN but I have this entire race on videotape, and it wasn’t cut this badly, and it shows Mario’s wreck in turn one. So again I ask, if you’re going to post a race as it was broadcasted, WHY cut out so much of the original coverage? I know my stuff.

Supposedly by next year or so they're going up to 900 horsepower. Long overdue.

Does anyone know why the Pocono 500 races on KZbin in the late 80s have been shorten to like an hour? Were they tape delayed at the time?

[@ror312gallery19]

some were blacked out locally, amazing they did not film all the races from 1960 onwards, all types of racing was being BROADCASTED in other countries, europe etc,been to many pocono, and nazerath, meadowlands races, as they were only 2 hours away, my dad took us in 1972,73,,,cheers Ian,,,robert in italy,!

That wind shield on Michael's car... wouldn't something similar on Justin Wilson's car have saved him ?

Disclaimer: This is the 1987 Quaker State 500...

[@IanTheMotorsportsMan_YT]

Yep, I believe this was the last Quaker State 500 with the oil sponsor. Or was it ‘88?

[@sw653j]

Have to wonder why Sneva was in the booth. Would make sense at a road course?
