That essentially will be the message at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, about an hour prior to the start of the 100th-anniversary Indianapolis 500, when a custom- built vehicle is released on a life-size Hot Wheels track from a nine-story platform. The goal is to make a world-record jump. Mattel, the maker of Hot Wheels, is calling this stunt "Fearless at the 500." I have been going to the Indianapolis Speedway since I was born.. and I have never seen anything like this before. I love Hot Wheels! Too much fun. All sorts of festivity for the 100th running of the Indy 500! Anyone else going this year?

Nice daily itinerary: 1) Obsess over Diva Betsy Ross 2) Obsess over "Boofer" 3) Stop at Modell's - check and see if latest lycra-spandex-nylon-rayon-silk jumpsuit has come in yet from China.

Hey Pal...one and two are mine and I'll thank you to stay away...

Well, I guess after all is said and done, that I can not really blame war. I have a feeling he is not the type of person to meet people like me in real life. :) You, on the other hand, are. SO.. are you an Indy 500 fan, lib? :) This is my favorite sport- since I was a little girl.
oh wait.. who is boofer? Just so I know..
:) You, on the other hand, are. My adventuresome spirit rides the Spanish wind like a Spanish Fly during mating season in Spain - but only mainly on the plain. #1. To: Goldi-Lox (#0) I used the wrong link. yukon posted on 2011-03-27 1:40:47 ET
"Boofer" is war's pet name for a poster he believes is the Pale Horse of the Seventh Apocalypse. "Badeye" is his native American name.

Your favorite sport?? Since you were a wee lass? How did that happen?? To tell you the truth diva, I can't tell the difference between the first lap and the five-hundredth. What made you get into the Indy 500 and not Stock Car racing or NASCAR? I prefer the more delicate fare of demolition derby and the sophistication of monster truck pulls. For some reason they make the beer and/or sterno taste better. *hiccup* :-)

heh..I went to the track when I was a little girl with my Dad. He grew up in Indianapolis. I just got hooked. I go to dirt tracks, and what not.. (on occasion) ;) and the people are *very nice* and all ;) AJ Foyt has a race at the Indy Fairgrounds the night before the 500.. it is a midget race, so I will go to that. NASCAR is not my thing.. nothing wrong with it, but I like open wheel racing.
