Pressure vs. desire

Stewart wants to win as much as ever at Indy, but this time it's different

INDIANAPOLIS - Tony Stewart wants to win Sunday's Allstate 400 at the Brickyard every bit as much as he did when he won NASCAR's annual Sprint Cup race at Indianapolis Motor Speedway in 2005 and 2007.

AUTO RACING Q & A
The Charlotte Observer's Jim Utter fields your racing-related questions.

 


that's racin' (phrase): Expresses frustration or emotion. 1. When a small part costing just a few dollars fails and stops a $150,000 race car, that's racin'. 2. When you race a competitor for 500 miles and lose to him by just a few feet, that's racin'. 3. When a hot dog wrapper blows out of the stands, gets caught across the air vent on the front of your car and causes your engine to overheat, that's racin'.
