You really need to think about your comments a little more..

Ironic, coming from a guy that's a fan of the poster child for the win-or-crash mentality, Paul Tracy. I think Michael had one DNF at Indy due to driver error.

Neither of them built any of the cars they ran or engineered them. You can't blame a driver for a fuel pump that quits, or something similar.
Obviously, you're not an Andretti fan but you really shouldn't knock them so hard. They were a lot better drivers than you give them credit for.
