Sometimes stuff just doesn’t go the way you think it’s going to go, and sometimes when that happens it will get your attention in a hurry. Such is the case with poor Ronnie Proctor, who went for one hell of a wild ride at Indy yesterday. You have to give him some credit for keeping his head on straight. Sure he’s along for the ride for most of it, but thank god he kept his foot off the skinny pedal on the right, because otherwise this sucker could have been running into the tree from the wrong way. You have to wonder what his heart rate was as he got it straight and rolled past the blocks after getting unbelievably close to crossing the center line. Of course none of that matters at that point, but most racers can’t say they’ve been facing both directions in their own lane before even going 330 feet down the track, nor would they want to.
At least if you are going to do something exciting you might as well make sure it counts, and since it is the US Nationals, you know that it will all be caught on camera. Since he’s okay, and so is the car, we’ll give him a hearty congrats on being the talk of the town for today and hope the rest of his weekend goes smoother than this one run.
