The all around weirdness/controversy that was 1997 actually had 35 starters for various reasons, which went about as well as expected, and that's even before Mother Nature showed her displeasure with the race, and USAC somehow managed to fumble the end of the race in spectacular fashion
The post race celebrations reminded me of the 1998 Daytona 500
Loved this dramatic action packed video

I love Indy and hope I can be in attendance for the 500 soon.
2021 was an awesome race.
