"We fired it up one weekend, I think, late in the year in '95," Schwantz said. "I'm looking forward to it. I've sat on it a couple of ⛄times. We've got some new Michelin tyres for it. I'm not going to try and throw down a qualifying lap, that's for sure, but I'm really looking forward to riding that thing here at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
"Hearing that V4 two-stroke [engine] runn🍨ing around out here is going to be special."
