I'm a transplanted Indianapolis native, now living in Northwest Indiana. As a home builder I get to travel a fair bit too though. Have you ever attended the Indy 500? If not, you have missed the Greatest Spectacle in Racing as they call it. I'd love to hear some Indy 500 Race Day stories?
On a trip to MI to visit family we stopped of in Indianapolis. It was the summer I turned 12 and I remember going to a museum and getting to ride around the track. I am not a race fan but I do remember that stop on the trip as being pretty cool.
I got to watch it on TV as usual. Then had to watch the Coca-Cola 600. I like to go to Indy for the BIG GO otherwise know as the NHRA U.S. Nationals! I enjoy watchin drag racing! I am interested on how the National events will change once the NHRA selling the Pro division.
Thanks for the post!
However, do not forget that Indy also has 2 other great races at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, as well as other great racing events at the O'Reilly Raceway Park.
Daniel,
Good point I have been on a tour bus at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. I have attended the NHRA US Nationals at O'Reilly Raceway Park in 2005 and 2006. That is a good time! Nothing more intense than the Nitro Funny Cars and the Top Fuel cars racing down the track!
