 INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - Inside Panther Racing's mobile command center at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, Mike Sheridan reads reams of data from 75 sensors mounted to the team's race cars.
The 27-year-old junior at IUPUI, who is studying mechanical engineering technology with an emphasis on motorsports, hopes his specialized degree and 50-hour-a-week internship will help him become an engineer for a racing team.
"It helps that I won't have to work for three years taking out trash," he said. "Hopefully, I'll have my foot in the door."
