Exclamation I'm at the MotoGP-US-Indy. *Pics*

Arrived last night. Have in-laws somewhat nearby so we went to visit them and headed back to the track to walk the paddock.

Not the best pics. I spent my time videotaping while the wife took the pics. Much better pics tomorrow, Saturday, and Sunday.

The rental car-

Safety cars

It was starting to rain on our way out today. Rain in the forecast through the weekend. Should make for an interesting race.

We're getting ready to head out now.
The weather forecast calls for RAIN the entire time. While I like a road race in the rain, I hate it for the flat track race. The Indy mile flat track race is something we wanted to see just as bad as the MotoGP. I haven't been to the Indy mile since I was a wee little boy. Oh well, have rain gear packed and have two sets of tickets to choose from. We'll be in a luxury suite or in turn one. I have not decided which seats we'll use yet. The luxury suite is nice, but it's along the front straight down towards the final turn leading onto the straight. The outdoor seats are in turn one. You know turn one will be an awesome overtaking spot on the course.

Just thought I would throw that out there so you could hate me a little more. Hell, if you could make it out for Sunday I might have spare tickets available. I won't know until Saturday though.

I'll post more pics tonight in this thread.

Nice! Enjoy! My brother and I went two years ago, it was awesome. For at least one race buy grandstand seats and sit at the start/finish line. The sound of the grid leaving on green is unbelievable.
