No. 24, Robbie Buhl, 2001 Purex G Force/Infiniti. Buhl was one of the drivers
who benefited from the infamous split in open-wheel racing. The former Indy
Lights champion (1992) had trouble finding a good ride in CART, but the arrival
of the Indy Racing League in 1996 provided an opportunity. He had success with both John Menard and
Dreyer & Reinbold, winning a race for each. Buhl’s Purex machine was one of
the more striking liveries of that era. In 2001, he started ninth and finished
15th in the 500. #ThisIsMay #Indy500
