Trump's IndyCar race: Doing 200 in a 25 mph zone with manhole cover-displacing torque

Donald Trump hosted the IndyCar event in Washington D.C., featuring open-wheel race cars that approach 200 mph on a track where the speed limit is 25 mph. This was positioned as part of America's 250th birthday celebration, though critics noted the events put little focus on the country's specific history or founding. Roger Penske led the effort to stage the event and is paying for the vast majority of necessary road improvements.
