	Coverage of the 85th Indianapolis 500
		It was big because it was the first time Penske competed at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway since 1995, when the most successful team in the history of the race missed the show because both of their drivers were too slow.
		But after winning the Indy 500 for a record 11th time in his first time back since his team failed to make the field in 1995 on Sunday, Penske said Helio Castroneves victory is the most satisfying of his career.
		INDIANAPOLIS - Roger Penske has accomplished a lot of great things at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway and the team owner said in the days leading up to the 85th Indianapolis 500 that he doesn’t like to rank his victories in the world’s biggest race.

	Indianapolis 500 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		At the end of the 1995 season, the Indianapolis 500 was transferred to its fourth regulations ruling body since its inception.
		With the Indianapolis 500 having been a part of the World Drivers Championship between 1950 and 1960, Ferrari made a discreet appearance at the 1952 event with Alberto Ascari, but European entries were few and far between during those days.
		However, the Indy 500 sided with the USAC for the next several years and became the only high-level race the body still sanctioned once its own Championship series was discontinued the next year years, and the race was temporarily removed from the championship calendar, although the same cars and drivers were in attendance.

	Indy 500 2000 - Indianapolis Motor Speedway History

		Parts of the track were resurfaced with asphalt beginning in 1937, and the entire track was resurfaced with asphalt in the summer of 1976, 1988 and again in the fall of 1995.

	"500" forecast; looking ahead on opening day
		While he was one of the strongest CART runners, during the early 1990's, Paul Tracy had terrible luck in his four "Indianapolis 500" appearances from 1992 through 1995 finishing 20th, 30th, 23rd and 24th respectively.
		Looking back on the 85th "Indianapolis 500" last May, I remember thinking Dismore was on his way to victory during the second third of the race before gearbox problems put him in the pits and laps behind.
		I have no doubt Arie Luyendyk has it in him to win another "Indianapolis 500." Look in the record books and you'll find the Dutchman has been one of the most stellar performers in the history of the "Indianapolis 500" and his two victories only tell part of the story.

		USAC allowed the cars to practice with the asymmetrical suspension but withheld its final inspection sticker until the change was made.

	1995 ANNUAL REPORT
		If a corporation such as Berkshire were simply to have owned the S&P 500 and accrued the appropriate taxes, its results would have lagged the S&P 500 in years when that index showed a positive return, but would have exceeded the S&P in years when the index showed a negative return.
		The S&P 500 numbers are pre-tax whereas the Berkshire numbers are after-tax.

	Canadian Prix 98
		Their achievements are impressive: In 1995, Jacques Villeneuve became the first Canadian, and the youngest driver ever, to win the IndyCar title and the Indianapolis 500.
		Savoy said that the current crop of drivers were inspired by the example of Gilles Villeneuve, the father of Jacques and the first Canadian Formula One hero, who died in a crash in 1982.
		Moore associates their success with ''the Crazy Canuck theory,'' where seemingly nice, polite Canadians are really wild under the surface, especially behind the wheel.
