No. 13, Greg Ray, 2004 Access Motorsports G Force/Honda. Fast and brave, Greg
Ray was one of the stars of the early days of the Indy Racing League. He
started on the front row for the Indianapolis 500 four straight times (1998-2001),
including beating Juan Pablo Montoya for the pole in 2000. Ray also won the IRL
title in 1999, driving for John Menard. Ray was sort of the Danny Ongais of the
IRL during that era. And like Ongais, Ray unfortunately crashed a lot – he was
eliminated due to an accident in four of his eight career Indy starts from 1997-2004.
In Ray’s final Indy appearance in 2004, he started and finished 27th,
going out after 98 laps because of a wreck.
