First of all I have never been to an indy car race before. All I can say is Hell YEA!! The sites and sounds of this type of race is nothing like watching it in that little box. Not even with surround sound....well If you had it so loud that the neighbors a half mile away were complaining you might come close. The bonus pit passes were awesome as well. Being behind pit row gives you a whole nother perceptive of the race. You also learn other little facts when your in the garage area. All the cars there run Infiniti power trains. Chev,mazda even HONDA all have the infiniti motor in them. Maybe some of you knew that already , I however was shocked to hear it. I also got to see a very unusual site for an indy car. Since this track is so hilly there are points they can go up the mountian side in the dirt. I saw my first indy car OFF ROAD runner ever. I took pictures there so I will be posting them later.
