random little tidbit...I have met an Andretti but he's one of Mario's nephews who does "consulting" for multiple auto manufacturers at their vehicle launches. I met him when Lexus launched the RC-F and he was at the 2016 RX350 launch too.

He's a really nice guy. I got to spend some time with him when I and Big Red did the drivers' introduction lap at Auto Club Speedway before the MavTV 500 IndyCar race. I'm sure you'll have a memorable experience, but he may scare the hell out of you. I'm sooo jealous! BTW, did you see our coach, Clay Helton, Grand Marshall for the big IndyCar race on Sunday at Long Beach? I was going to stand at the fence and holdup the vertical USC Rose Bowl Champions flag at the fence, but it was a pig pile of people.
