The Epic Indy500 Trip I Took with my YouTube Friends

Greetings viewers i am eric the car guy and before i start this video i'm gonna let you know as i always do with sponsored content that this video is sponsored content that said i want to talk to you about my trip to the Indianapolis 500 2019 yes I realized

When I'm posting this video it is long after the event and I apologize for that however I'd like to share with you my experiences with that and first and foremost I want to thank Shell because they helped put together the most epic

Road trip between me and a lot of my close friends on YouTube we had engineering explained Matt Moran of Matt Moran motoring chrisfix and homo mechanic all people that I think the world of anyway they all brought their

Cars that we all showed up at my shop in fact I was just finishing up the work that I was doing on dad's truck when they showed up it started it up for the first time while they were here which you will see in a future video but that

Said shell brought us all together for this road trip from Cincinnati to the Union natheless 500 but before we left we stopped at a local shell station and had a little Meetup and despite the fact that it rained we had a really great

Turnout and met a lot of great fans I gave away some t-shirts it was just a really good time but before we left of course we filled up with some shell premium v-power Nitro+ and headed out down the road to the Indianapolis 500

And I've got to say we've always wanted to do a trip with our cars and she'll help make it happen and I'm super grateful for that because we really enjoyed it we get to Indianapolis and the fun wasn't over I mean I thought the

Road trip was great but here we are at in Indianapolis and I'm going to the Indianapolis 500 for the first time and before we even went to the race there were days leading up to it and in one of those days a police escort from the

Hotel to the racetrack the the infield in front of the Indianapolis 500 museum we had another Meetup but talk about an epic meetup here at this historical iconic museum the Indianapolis 500 this car the Fairmont was parked out in front

Along with all the rest of our cars and once again we had a great meet up and met some great fans and had a great time we also got a chance to tour the basement of the museum which isn't open to the public which was wicked cool I'm

Gonna be completely spoiled for the Indianapolis 500 from here on out because I haven't even talked about the racing part yet it's a race day we also needed a police escort for our bus that went there because if you've ever

Been in the you name Indianapolis 500 do you know that walking is probably the best way to do it we finally got into our space in there and then we got a – we got a chance to tour the garages got to see the cars being prepped for the

Race then we actually got a chance to be on the track at the where everybody was at pole position before everything started they did a national anthem and all that stuff like I said I am completely ruined for the Indianapolis

500 for the rest of my life so thank you shell the reason why they put this whole trip together is for me to share with you their new formulation of the shell premium v-power Nitro+ it now has things that I don't necessarily grasp but a new

Friction modifier that is added to the fuel to make it even more efficient I will say this they don't have to pay me to say this because I've been running shell v-power premium Nitro+ in the Fairmont since day one and I've

Personally found that as far as fuels go the car runs better on that fuel than any other fuel especially when it had a carburetor it just seemed to run better idle smoother all those types of things so before they reformulated it or

Anything I've been running it in this car and I would run it in my car even if they weren't sponsoring this video so I'm gonna just put that out there I use the fuel I like the fuel but the reason why they did this whole promotion was to

Share with you about their new formulation I'll link that down in the description so perhaps you can glean some more information than what I've given you here special thanks to shell special thanks to all my friends who

Came out and hung out with me at the shop gave me some moral support while I finished up the truck I was pretty Haggard and strung out by the time they showed up anyway I really enjoyed that trip I will as I said I've been ruined

For the Indy 500 from now and forever but thank you shell and thank you as viewers for watching I hope you enjoyed this video and what I've put together and shared with you for you here today if you have automotive questions I ask
