To be satisfied is a good feeling. Everyone likes
to be satisfied.
But, to be satisified is the end when it comes to competing: when
it comes to improving.
Those that find themselves satisifed find
themselves left behind.
To never be satisified is the key. Be proud, yes, but never be
satisified.
Enter the front door at the headquarters of Andretti Green Racing
in Indianapolis, Indiana, and this is exactly what you'll find.
What was a mere concept just a short time ago has been tranformed
into a company with an international reputation for being a world-class
motorsports industry leader.
Three owners, four race car drivers, nearly 100 employees and diverse
corporate backing from companies totaling more than $200 billion
in annual revenues have come together in the right formula to create
the powerful mix that is Andretti Green Racing -- 2004 Indy Racing
League IndyCar Series champions.
