I know it is early. But, public tickets will go on sale in October. So I wanted to throw it out there.
Anyone going in 2016? Next year is the 100th running of the race. We've never been. So I figured it was a good year to go. My oldest son and I are planning to drive the 914 up to the race. Any advice on where to stay? I have a reservation at La Quinta Inn & Suites Indianapolis AP Plainfield. It is by the airport, about 13 miles from the track. We will be driving up from Charlotte - either through Virginia, West Virginia, Ohio, or through Kentucky, depending on whether others might want drive with us. Maybe a 914 caravan? Our plan is to drive up on Friday, have Saturday to go to the museum, etc., watch the race on Sunday, and drive home Monday. |

I'm not going to the race, but maybe able to drive down Saturday and meet up with you guys for lunch / dinner? You are only about 2 1/2 hours away.

We should meet somewhere on Main Street in Speedway. Lots of restaurants and the place to be seen!! I'm in if it isn't during work. If you want to get out of Speedway (it will be crammed packed), a couple exits North there is a restaurant called the Boat House at 56th/High School Road that is pretty good. Fairly easy drive from Speedway. |
