1992 Indy Car Season
The 1992 IndyCar season, the fourteenth in the CART era of U.S. open-wheel racing, consisted of 17 races, beginning in Surfers Paradise, Queensland, Australia on March 22 and concluding in Monterey, California on October 18, in which it was marred by the death of Jovy Marcelo. There was one non-championship event, the Marlboro Challenge. The PPG Indy Car World Series Drivers' Champion was Bobby Rahal and the Indianapolis 500 winner was Al Unser, Jr. The Rookie of the Year was Stefan Johansson. The 76th Indianapolis 500 was sanctioned by the USAC, but counted in the CART points standings.

Famous quotes containing the words car and/or season:
“I marched in with the men afoot; a gallant show they made as they marched up High Street to the depot. Lucy and Mother Webb remained several hours until we left. I saw them watching me as I stood on the platform at the rear of the last car as long as they could see me. Their eyes swam. I kept my emotion under control enough not to melt into tears.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
“Hence in a season of calm weather
Though inland far we be,
Our Souls have sight of that immortal sea
Which brought us hither,”
—William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
