From the Indianapolis Motor Speedway (IMS) site.
Sure missed going to the show this year. I have been going to the last 8 or 9 Indy 500s with friends and, let me tell you, this is one real fun party. Good times for all and we sure had them. We normally go from Thursday and come back on Monday. Alas, no Indy 500 this year. Hopefully next year.
I never ever thought I'd be interested in any kind of auto racing, even though I'm originally from North Carolina. But when my friends said they had an opening for one person to go to Speedway, Indiana (the IMS is actually in Speedway, not Indianapolis) and stay in their RV across from the track, that was too good of an opportunity to pass up.
Anyway, the IMS owes its existence partially to one Carl Fisher, who was the man behind the Lincoln Highway, Dixie Highway and Miami Beach. To say Carl never did anything small is an understatement.
By the way. our seats are called the catwalk, all the way up at the top of the south stands, about where the man's right hand is in the picture.
Maybe Next Year. --RoadSpeed
