Not allowed to have any fun in Vancouver anymore

I know that everyone is biased but for me, the 90’s were the golden age of racing. Indycar, CART, F1, IMSA, ALMS, NHRA, etc.. The racing was intense and still had a bit of the danger of the old days that forced drivers to be “gentlemen racers”. Sportscar/endurance racing had closing speeds of near 100mph between classes and the GTP cars early in the decade were the pinnacle of absurdity. Governing bodies were struggling to limit the new computers, Panoz, mclaren, Mercedes, Porsche, et al were battling in GT1. It was a candy store for race fans with a touch of the ruinous corporate domination that was to come. I feel lucky to have seen it first hand. Videos like this bring back so many happy memories of going to every race my dad and I could make it to. Thanks for the upload.

it was pretty cool to see riding back and forth back then. the sound of the race cars was way louder than the trains. crazy to think of the speeds.

Finally, a full, complete version of this race! Keep 'em coming, IndyCar!

Man ...the cars .sound and that race track ... The drivers had a good fun out there

they have to bring it back. Vancouver was poppin in the 90s

Thank you so much for the upload! I lived in this City my whole life and I remember going to these races each year with my mom as a child and by myself since I got older since she couldn't stand the noise anymore, lol. Half of the course now has been redeveloped into condos, and the other half City traffic still resumes. I hope you guys bring back some City racing back into Vancouver. We welcome you guys back with big open arms. PS; please upload more Vancouver races. ;)

I was there in 2002. Awesome experience!

IndyCar I love you!

Thanks Indycar for another great race video.

this race was 2 yrs before i feel in love with indy so this race was new to me . Indy is the best aw man

I always preferred this track layout in Vancouver to the other one. This layout was simpler and the sections leading up to the hairpin and the one underneath the sports arena were mega 🏁

I blue flagged this race at the hair pin.

Awesome video! I think the next one-hit wonder will be the 1998 True Value 500 which would be the first IndyCar posted a TNN telecast! Other one-hit wonders would be the 1996 Las Vegas 500K, the 1997 Las Vegas 500K, the 1982 Road America race, and the 1997 Phoenix 200!

I'd also add the 1999 Mall.com 500 and the the first Australia IndyCar race as other one-hit wonders!

zanardi was a maniac lol

1997 is the last golden indycar season.

Thanks!

Gugelmin’s only career victory.

greatest years of indy ,mansell,blundell,superb racing

Thank you indycar

Loved this race. Shame IndyCar doesn't run here anymore. Massive shame :( this was probably my favourite race here ever. Shame I never got to attend a race. I was hopping to attend the race this July at Exhibition Place but with this Corona Virus I doubt it will happen SO I left Toronto anyway to Alberta

Man i miss CART

Vancouver needs to bring this back to the city.

49:23 Michael does a nice drift through the corner. Pretty epic stuff.

i went to this a bunch as a kid every year the sound was insane, so crazy to see all these streets i drive on now but these cars running on them track looks kind of garbage to overtake on though

It was a nice race. ☺

I know it will probably never happen, but I would love to see IndyCar race at Monaco. Just the tunnel part of this race is reminiscent of the tunnel part at Monaco.

Vi isso ao vivo no SBT. Narração de Téo José

Esos sonidos de los autos de fórmula cart de los 90s completamente atronadores en todos los circuitos con sus majestuosos motores v8 turbo con una aceleración muy aloca da completamente fuera de serie de casi 900 caballos de potencia absoluta.

Unic Victori Gugelmim !! In automobilism

Michael Andretti was the man!!!! Haas should've never gone to swift! Mikey surely would've gotten at least 2 more championships

Formula E is coming to Vancouver. But we need an Indycar race in western Canada FFS. Someone build a circuit in the Fraser Valley somewhere. One that can have an Indy race and then an F1 race in the future.

Was this in June or after that of that year? You know, I was born in June of 1997. The first of that month to be exact.

Zanardi should have been disqualified and suspended for taking Herta out while a lap down. Then he blames Herta, who doesn't need to leave room for lapped cars in a non passing place.

A shame how residential areas complained about the races in Vancouver being to loud and congest the area on race day. My cousin for one purpose, purchased an apartment suite (concord pacific) near main, cambie Pacific st, for the reason knowing the races are held annually there so he can have front seats from the view in his building. Bastardly people of Vancouver how could you do this to your city. This event generated money and revenue for land\property owners like my cousin. Part of the reason why I dislike ppl who complain for the interest of none other than their own. I pitty you Vancouver overcrowded good for nothing city. Learn from cities like Toronto and Montreal where they appreciate entertainment and enthusiasts.
