Default Brickyard 400

Anyone headin' to the Brickyard 400 in Indianapolis coming up? I'm not a Nascar fan really (never been to a race) but want to go to see what it's all about. Some of the guys I ride with have extra tickets so we'll be riding up to Indy to watch the race. Hey... any excuse for a little road trip

I'm not going this year but made it to past Brickyards and 500's. Living just outside of Indy on the NE side makes it real convenient to get there. But this year I didn't do any races. It's a fun event just to see what the heck 2-3 hundred thousand people will do even if you aren't a race fan.

If you go once you'll definately go again. Especially a track like Indy. It's worth it just to say you've been there.

Hey nine2nine my work situation is the same type thing. The business is open 24/7/365. But that's medical equipment support for you. I see you are from Indiana, where at?
Hopefully my broken foot will be healed soon and maybe I can ride over that way (towards the track) in another week and will change my mind and actually go to the race.

I normally go to the Brickyard but not this year, been way too busy this summer and need a weekend to relax.

Hey Nine, I'm in terrible hole too, we'll have to meet up sometime.
