Final IMS Museum Tour Before Closing - Part 2

The Indianapolis Motor Speedway Museum is set to close for the next 18 months as the first major renovation of the building takes place since the facility opened in 1976. Before the museum closes the door on its original form I asked Jason Vansickle, curator of the museum, to take my viewers on one last tour, from the Marmon Wasp... and beyond!

Why David doesn't work for Indy Car right now I'll never know

[@alexander1485]

Cause they won't hire him?

[@Kliphie]

He’s doing it for free already …

[@JonDoe-ln6nl]

Because IndyCar is clueless regarding 21st Century promotion & PR.

[@runrafarunthebestintheworld]

Because he doesn't just cover IndyCar.

[@rogerpenske2411]

Bring back Roy Hobbs and the Willie T Ribbs report

[@russtaylor385]

Loved episode 2 too! Fabulous.

[@Ghettocowboy33]

This reminds me of a PBS special! Thanks David

[@TeagueDaddy]

Love this series! Keep up the great work! Also love the camera work!

[@richardmourdock2719]

Fabulous series. Great discussion between the two of you.

[@bartsullivan4866]

I had the pleasure of seeing the museum in 2019 with my dad and uncles what a great time so much history of the sport. It was a tribute to Mario that year but so cool seeing all the winning cars. the band played through the museum how often do you see that happen what a great time. And you could even buy discount T-shirts from prior years.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Very cool Bart.... 🏁🏁

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

🏁Great vid, love this series!!! 🏁👍

[@MrPens87]

Dave, I had a stroke so I’m not able to come to the track even though I live 30 minutes south of the track. Thank you for this tour ❤️

[@billfunk3168]

Truly enjoyed this video David !

[@danooc1]

Unfortunately that STP livery reminds me of Swede Savage And that snakebit 1973 Indy 500 R.I.P.

[@healthyone100]

i was there that day, i remember looking down to the 4th turn and seeing the fire and smoke not knowing who crashed, i was a big Swede fan RIP, also the Terran accident happened right in front of me, 1973 was my 1st 500 and the saddest!

[@kevinridge8194]

Fabulous work David, love seeing all the beautifully restored cars. Keep it up!

[@MonacoMcLaren]

Brilliant.

[@rcsouth]

Awesome Brother. Thanks. Im so ready for May!

[@richardharrison70]

EXCELLENT. YOUR visit helped to fill-in blanks :)

[@markevans1127]

Really interesting thanks Dave great history thank you.

[@richardsilvestri6874]

OMG great video David!

[@edwardburek1717]

That "sidecar" machine though - one wonders what sort of substance Smokey Yunick was ingesting when he thought up of that one...

[@mrbloodmuffins]

I liked that you were showing off some pre-WWII cars. I dont know nearly as much about that period as i do the 60s onward.

[@brandonross4742]

@davidland Just a heads up, but you probably already know Milwaukee Mile tickets are up for sale on the Wisconsin State Fair website now.

[@spydergkh6337]

I was at the Milwaukee Mile in 1968 (Rex Mays 150). Art Pollard & Joe Leonard were driving the wedge STP cars. I believe that was a win for Lloyd Ruby. Sadly, Ronnie Duman was killed on lap 2.

[@elosogonzalez8739]

David, your knowledge is impressive!

[@tsf5-productions]

In this segment- Part 2 of 3...there are several of the cars as favorites of mine. Jim Clark's Lotus-Ford (model #34) is Mong the top three. I said this before in other Indy "500" KZbin videos of the 48th "500" running of the '64 race is...what a shame Colin Chapman's selection of Dunlop tires over Firestone's would possibly have made Clark place in the race be first. That Alfa-Romero looks great. Ted Horn's #43 of the 1935 Indianapolis "500" race is a beauty. Shame it had "freezing" steering gear problems took him out. His literally unbeatable high placing "500" finishes (4th place or higher but, less than 1st place) would have been amazing. In my opinion, Horn should have won the "500" at least once. His untimely death in October of '48 was a loss for the racing community. 91.5 c.i.d. size engines...(1 and-a-half) ... that's near a VW "Bug" was! The great NOVI car...what a great looking machine! The Maurice Phillpe design along with a few other designers of the 1972 Indy racer...what a pretty car! One of those "top three favorites" of mine. Al Unser, Sr. was my favorite driver of that "Super Team". Al's Indy finishes in his career was fantastic! I saw in person, three of his four "500" Indy victories (1970, 1971, and '78)

[@joellekahalewai7592]

David 🎉🎉🎉🎉you’re in sin city ! Hope you enjoy it out here and that sandwich ☺️

[@richardsilvestri6874]

I remember watching the “super team “ run the dihedral wing cars at Trenton that year in April as a child. OMG I feel old now lol!

[@richardmourdock2719]

Don't feel too bad. As soon as they started talking about the Novi the name "Duke Nolan" came to my mind... and that roar...........

[@daveboyer8300]

Great race-cars!

[@robertahrens9481]

What happened to the Jim Rathmann car? He was my boss for 15 years. Really miss the old guy

[@gregpine2120]

Love your content cousin!

[@alexander1485]

They aren't rear engine, they are mid rear engine (rear engine is like Porsche 911, Renault Alpine a110, a310, first gen vw beetle, etc)

[@Kliphie]

… semantically is the best kinda right

[@mehmarcus1995]

Penske PC-23 next?

[@robinfeathers7134]

Curious about that myself. Like they mentioned if they put current tire technology on Arie's car they believe it would go a lot faster. But what if they put current tire technology on The Beast?

[@stevenkilsdonk2046]

Oh.

[@snotnosewilly99]

I quit watching Indy car racing when they went to the rear engine cars.

[@Miklos82]

Your loss. You've missed the greatest era of IMS.

[@healthyone100]

wow you sounds like you've been around a while!
