    Awesome job Conor! My wife and I were there for our first 500 and it was truly amazing. I went in with expectations that were blown away. It was one of the most welcoming places, despite being the biggest crowd we've ever seen. From the track employees, the vendors, and the other fans, everyone was super nice and we left feeling like we made new friends. Well done to everyone involved! Can't wait to do it again.

    No way haters can say your success is a fluke, the past 3 years is hard proof. Nice work man, so fun to root for you every year. With those stats, you deserve another shot without a doubt. Never give up on that!

    no way i was missing my 30th indy 500, even if it took a 4hr rain delay. that was the best race since i started attending in 95. great clean racing, 3 and 4 wide on that last restart and coming out clean was fun to watch. every driver that finished deserves a round of applause for driving so wild and aggressively and CLEAN

    Amazing May Conor ! Thank you, when I was heavy into the sport in the mid ‘90’s us fans craved insight like the one that you provide regularly! I hope fans appreciate this, it truly adds to the community.
    I hope you get the opportunity for a full season, not just one more race !
    I’m at Long Bch every year and it would be awesome to see you on the grid !

    I hope your sponsor was happy. You were announced as a leader their name and yours. 3 top ten with leading the race. I hope they want more ovals for you. So when someone like your self looks back like you do and picks your name what do you hope to hear them say? A one off car makes top ten. I hope you and all your sponsors are happy. Good job.

    Most entertaining 500 in recent memory, maybe the best one I've seen ever! Was great to see you run up front, Conor! My gf and I were cheering for you every lap! I think you finished as the 3rd driver with most laps led, just ONE behind Stingray Robb.

    Great race Conor! Glad to see you back in the car. The track looked like it raced so much better later in the afternoon. Other than the setting sun in T3-T4. You think that starting the race later in the day would produce a better race overall? Interesting on hearing a driver's perspective.

    It was a great race once it started! Thanks for the daily Daly update, and I'll be watching for the full podcast. You did a fantastic job, and I really enjoyed listening to your scanner. Even when the NASCAR race started in Charlotte, I stayed with the TV coverage of Indy. I found a short documenting your getting Jeff Gordon to sign your shoes. I think he was totally jazzed that you were going to be wearing shoes in his honor for the Indy 500.

  • @davesteadman4715
    @davesteadman4715 8 місяців тому

    After the amount of time you were at the front, and the way the cautions fell well for the other strategy, better than 10th could have been possible. Always love the details like backing off the brake pads to reduce drag, if you could share any of that in the podcast.

    Conor, great drive. I was very pleased to see you running up front. It would have been awesome if you were leading on the other side of lap 100 and there was a huge thunderstorm. 🙂 I'm surprised you haven't followed Mike Conway into the WEC or IMSA, as I believe you'd do very well. Until next year, be well.

    @nicholasoberlies7468 8 місяців тому

    My family is rooting for you to get additional rides this year! Suggestion: how about detailing how much sponsorship you need to add additional races to the calendar? It would make an interesting video. You could be vague enough to not disclose secrets but specific enough to put it into a ballpark. Who knows. The right investor may be looking for a popular driver to promote. Good luck.

    Best Indy 500 what I have watched so far. Haven't seen that many yet. Last year one lap shootout was not a good thing imo so this was 100% better. The way it should be for sure.
