This week feels like the last week of school. In just a few days I’ll leave for Indianapolis and all of the Indy 500 festivities thereof. In the hopes of spreading the excitement I’ve decided to hold a little contest.
The details
The person who correctly answers the most questions wins.
In the event of a tie, a winner will be chosen at random from the particpants who correctly answered the most questions.
The prize will include a dandy item from the official Gift Shop of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway and some knitter’s delight from an Indy area yarn store. (If winner is not a knitter another pleasing prize will be substituted).
The Deadline
Answers must be emailed here no later than Wednesday, May 23th, 9:00 p.m. (CST).
The Rest
Please DO NOT leave your answers in comments.
Yes, you can use the internet.

Is it cheating if I just e-mail our mutual friend John and get the answers from him? He was one of my favorites at the old job, and I'll definitely miss him.
Oh! You're *that* Emily. Hello Emily!!! Being that John helped in the writing of the questions it might be considering cheating. Yeah.
