Wow, looks like you had GREAT seats. I'm so jealous! I wish Mark could have got by Jimmy at the end...

Not my style, but I did just happened to overhear a couple guys I know at a car show today talking about rumors Danica Patrick may be jumping over to NASCAR?! :shock:

I will be down in Indy Sept 4 - 6 for the NHRA US Nationals.

man i was mad jaun pablo-montoya got penalized for speeding. he was kicking butt and taking names all race. with him out mark martin (the first driver i ever knew) should have won. jimmy should have let him win. w/e. yea i may have to go to a drag race next. (ive never been). i just cant believe i was the only lost member to go.

I used to so be in NASCAR. Earnhardt died, followed Jr, now I dont even know who won half the time. Now I would rather wach CORR or something like that. Glad you had a good time Matt

thanks. yea mr earnhard sr. was my favorite driver. i watched his accident live. i dont like jr any more because he cries too much, but everyone at the track today loved him. tixx were $90 a piece but the most expensive tix are $500 so by sports comparison theyre not that much

I would love to go a nascar race.. all we have out here is pikes peak and a drag track

you should go to an indy car race too. they go like, 55 mph faster. the nascars were going like 165. indycars go 220.

Matt, I WAS THERE !

Good Race. This was my 10th Brickyard 400 race. I missed the 500 this year for the first time since 1993. I have been to a lot of races all over, Indy, Daytona, Michigan, Richmond, Atlanta, Memphis, Kentucky well.. those are some of the bigger tracks that every one would know. . were you siiting where those pics were from on pit road? I sat down in turn 1 SE Vista. Left Toledo about 5:30 this morn. , got down there about 10:00 AM walked right up and bought tickets at the window! Oh by the way, I thought it was a good race cause I'm a 48 fan. :lol:

Finally got home about 11:15PM. Long Day ... but it was gorgeous for a race day at Indy

I usually camp for 4-5 days down there. Camp under the water tower at the South end of the track

i knew i wasnt the only one. my other friend nick was sitting between 1 and 2. i was tower terrace. we messed up. we didnt bring food or drinks. i spent 14 on food, 20 on parking, 9 on drinks, and 2 on ear plugs (which were necessary after 8 laps). and that was with free tickets. my friend josh's auto teacher was there too. his sons are tire changers for 2 different teams. thought that was pretty cool.
