No one forgot the post-race
No one forgot the post-race scene, when Stewart stopped his No. 20 Home Depot Pontiac in front of the Turn 2 suites, took a swig from a can of Coca-Cola from a fan and saluted his friends and family. Then Stewart drove back to the Yard of Bricks and climbed the front stretch fence in celebration with his Joe Gibbs Racing crew, like Helio Castroneves had done three and four years earlier after his consecutive Indy 500 wins.
“I wish I could put it into words,” Stewart said as he laid on the outside wall on the front stretch after climbing the catch fence. “Today’s been my entire life.”
“Smoke” won the Brickyard again two years later in another popular victory with the Hoosier faithful gathered at IMS. But perhaps no victory since Jeff Gordon’s triumph in the inaugural Brickyard in 1994 created such rapture in the massive IMS grandstands as Stewart’s magic carpet ride to a breakthrough win in 2005.
