BLOSSOMED INTO INDY'S MOST

4
00:00:14.981 --> 00:00:21.888
LOOKED FORWARD TO GATHERINGS
WHILE RAISING MORE THAN
$2.5 MILLION DOLLARS FOR THE
TRAUMA AND CRITICAL PROGRAMS OF

00:00:21.888 --> 00:00:24.691
IU HEALTH.
AND TO GIVE US BOTH A PREVIEW OF
REV AND BUT ALSO THE RACING
ACTIVITIES ARE KEVIN HIPSKIND,

REGIONAL VICE PRESIDENT OF
SPONSORING FIFTH THIRD BANK, AND
A GUY WHO REALLY KNOWS HIS WAY
AROUND THE SPEEDWAY, RAHAL

7
00:00:30.363 --> 00:00:37.137
LETTERMAN LANIGAN RACING'S
VETERAN DRIVER GRAHAM RAHAL.
GENTLEMEN, WELCOME TO THE
PROGRAM.

8
00:00:37.137 --> 00:00:44.310
KEVIN, THIS IS YOUR SIXTH YEAR
OF REV, YOU'VE BEEN ON BOARD FOR
FIVE YEARS.
WHAT ATTRACTED YOUR COMPANY TO

9
00:00:44.310 --> 00:00:49.182
THIS EVENT?
>> WHEN WE'RE LOOKING FOR OUR
PARTNERS IN VISIBILITY EVENTS,
WE LOOK FOR THINGS THAT CONNECT

10
00:00:49.182 --> 00:00:55.822
WITH OUR COMMUNITY.
THERE'S NOTHING THAT CONNECTS
MORE WITH OUR COMMUNITY THAN THE
MOTOR SPEEDWAY, AND WITH THE

11
00:00:55.822 --> 00:01:02.462
INDIANAPOLIS 500 AND WHEN WE SAW
THE OPPORTUNITY TO PARTNER WITH
SOMEONE LIKE I.U. HEALTH FOR
SUCH A GOOD NEED, THAT SERVES

12
00:01:02.462 --> 00:01:10.437
THE COMMUNITY ON THE CRITICAL
CARE SIDE, IT WAS LIKE THE
PERFECT MARRIAGE.
WE REALLY SAW IT IN MAY,

13
00:01:10.437 --> 00:01:15.475
EVERYONE GETS EXCITED, THE SUN
COMES OUT, WE START WATCHING
MOTOR SPARTS AND START THINKING
ABOUT MAY, AND WHAT A GREAT

14
00:01:15.475 --> 00:01:24.818
EVENT TO KICK OFF MAY AND WHAT
GREAT PARTNER IN I.U. HEALTH.
WE SAW THE COMBINATION OF THE
TWO, WE CAN IT THE SECOND YEAR

15
00:01:24.818 --> 00:01:32.659
AND I REALLY THINK IT'S BECOME
THE PREMIERE EVENT IN INDIANA
>> GRAHAM, YOU SERVED AS
CO-CHAIR LAST YEAR.

16
00:01:32.659 --> 00:01:36.896
>> I DID.
>> WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR THE
DRIVERS?
>> WITH U. HEALTH AND THE

17
00:01:36.896 --> 00:01:44.304
FOUNDATION, IT MEANS A LOT TO
US.
OBVIOUSLY CRITICAL CARE TRAUMA
IS IMPORTANT, THE INFIELD CARE

18
00:01:44.304 --> 00:01:50.343
CENTER.
WE KNOW THE IESKTS THAT CAN HAVE
ON OUR LIVES, WHETHER IT BE
HINGECLIFF WHO LITERALLY

19
00:01:50.343 --> 00:01:58.485
SURVIVED BECAUSE OF THE CARE
THAT HE RECEIVED ON THE SPOT, OR
WHETHER WE GO OUT OF TOWN EVEN
AND THOSE DOCTORS AND NURSES,

20
00:01:58.485 --> 00:02:03.690
EVERYBODY COME WITH US, THAT
MEANS A LOT.
SO TO BE ABLE TO SUPPORT AN
EVENT LIE REV, FIFTH THIRD BANK

21
00:02:03.690 --> 00:02:12.899
IS AN AMAZING PARTNER BOTH FOR
OUR TEAM AND FOR REV TO BE ABLE
TO GIVE BACK, HAVE SOME FUN, EAT
SOME FOOD, ALL THOSE SORTS OF

22
00:02:12.899 --> 00:02:17.737
THINGS.
IT'S A PERFECT EVENT AND KICKS
OFF THE MONTH OF MAY IDEALLY.
>> KEVIN, AGAIN AWR ON THE CAR

23
00:02:17.737 --> 00:02:26.546
AS WELL SO YOU'RE TAKING IT FROM
OFF THE TRACKS TO ON THE TRACK
WITH YOUR SPONSORSHIP.
>> ABOUT FOUR YEARS AGO, WE

24
00:02:26.546 --> 00:02:31.985
STARTED LOOKING INTO DIFFERENT
WAYS WE CAN BE CONNECTED WITH
MOTORSPORTS IN INDIANAPOLIS.
WE ARE THE MOTORSPORTS CAPITAL

25
00:02:31.985 --> 00:02:37.524
WORLD AND WE TRY TO REFLECT THE
COMMUNITIES IN WHICH WE SERVE SO
WHAT A BETTER MARRIAGE THAN TO
FIND A TEAM WE CAN ALIGN WITH.

26
00:02:37.524 --> 00:02:44.797
WHEN WE LOOKED AT THE TEAMS, WE
WERE REALLY LOOKING FOR PEOPLE
THAT REALLY REFLECT THE VALUES
THAT WE HAVE AND WHEN WE LOOKED

27
00:02:44.797 --> 00:02:53.006
AT RAHAL FLANAGAN LETTERMAN, WE
SAW PEOPLE THAT NOT ONLY WERE
HIGHLY COMPETITIVE AND A GREAT
RACE TEAM BUT ALSO PEOPLE THAT

28
00:02:53.006 --> 00:03:00.680
WERE COMMITTED TO THE COMMUNITY.
GRAHAM AND BOBBY AND MIKE,
EVERYONE IS VERY CONNECTED TO
THE COMMUNITY AND WANTS TO GIVE

29
00:03:00.680 --> 00:03:06.519
BACK TO THE COMMUNITY.
SO WE THOUGHT IT WOULD BE A
PERFECT MARRIAGE FOR US.
AND WE INIT TERRED INTO

30
00:03:06.519 --> 00:03:14.794
R
CONTRACT, WE REMEUD IT FOR
ANOTHER THREE YEARS AND I'M
REALLY EXCITED WITH THE FUTURE

31
00:03:14.794 --> 00:03:21.434
FOR THE TEAM, IT'S BEEN A GREAT
RELATIONSHIP.
>> A LITTLE SHAKEDOWN RUN FOR
THE TEAMS THIS WEEK, YOU AND

32
00:03:21.434 --> 00:03:27.006
YOUR TEAMMATE OFF TO A GOOD
START FOR THE SEASON.
OBVIOUSLY HIGH ANTICIPATION FOR
THE MONTH OF MAY, BOTH THE GRAND

33
00:03:27.006 --> 00:03:33.179
PRIX AND INDY.
>> HUGE, HUGE.
YEAH, I MEAN, WE'RE EXCITED TO
GET GOING, GREAT TO BE ON TRACK,

34
00:03:33.179 --> 00:03:41.688
TURN SON LAPS, GET OUT THERE,
SHAKE IT DOWN A LITTLE BIT.
THE WEATHER WASN'T I DEAL, IT
WAS NICE TO BE ON TRACK AND

35
00:03:41.688 --> 00:03:53.166
SHAKE OFF THE RUST A LITTLE BIT
BUT WE'RE EXCITED TO GET BACK.
REV REALLY KICKS THIS THING OFF,
THEN WE MOVE ON FROM THERE.

36
00:03:53.166 --> 00:03:58.404
THE GRAND PRIX IS HUGE, ONE OF
MY FAVORITE RACES OF THE ENTIRE
SEASON BUT IMMEDIATELY TURN YOUR
ATTENTION TO TUESDAY WHEN WE

37
00:03:58.404 --> 00:04:04.310
START RUNNING ON THE OVAL AND
THEN IT'S ALL ON FROM THERE.
BUT WE SHOULD YOU, IN THE NUMBER
15 CAR, HAVE A GREAT OPPORTUNITY

38
00:04:04.310 --> 00:04:10.917
TO WEN THIS THING.
>> AS WE WRAP UP, WILL WE SEE
DAVID LETTERMAN DOWN --
>> I'M SURE DAVE WILL BE HERE.

39
00:04:10.917 --> 00:04:15.922
DAVE ALWAYS MAKES HIS MAY
APPEARANCE BACK HOME AGAIN IN
INDIANA, I GUESS, AND
INDIANAPOLIS, SO HE WILL BE HEE

40
00:04:15.922 --> 00:04:21.394
I HAVE NO DOUBT.
>> BEST OF LUCK TO BOTH OF YOU,
GRAHAM, HAVE A GREAT MONTH OF
