Your not serious about running on the speedway are you? How much would something like that cost? Is it extra over the $25 registration fee?

My *** I want to run on the track! I'm THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sadly, I have to be back at work sunday morning. Then again, I might just blow it off for a chance to drive my car on the track.

Is there a website, or phone# I can call for more information?

i dunno i just searched google for cruise nights in indiana and a site came up that had that information........im probably not going to run on the track cuz im pretty sure they only let you do like 45mph but it does seem like it should have a good turnout...........

Just getting a picture of my car on the track would be enough for me.

Bloomington Gold is this weekend also though, what to do.......

urg i might be seeing my boyfriend sat. man, i cant make it then. but i'll be at the bloomingdale mcd's friday night!! tim come out friday night, meet some fellow 3rd geners and look at some cool old cars

I have been going up there for along time, same cars week after week. Gets a little old.

Depending on the Bloomington Gold thing this weekend, i may go up there for a few.

Any more info on this? Specially concering a lap on the track. Is there an extra fee over the $25 for that? Is there a speed limit? If indy cars can lap the track at 200mph in the turns then I don't think that 100mph is out of the question in the turns.

i dunno man you will have to just come to find out.......like i said that is all i know i just found it on some site that posted different things going on in indiana and it caught my eye....sorry i cant answer you questions....

FruityOne

I wish you had provided a link to the flyer, I thought this was later in the afternoon.

But I can't miss work. I was just out of work for 3 weeks and I'm still recovering. Hell, I started charging gas and food to my credit card JUST to make sure I didn't go underbalance in my bank account.

Latest I could get of work would be 3:30, so its not worth the hike if it will all be over at 4:00.

firebirdchick24

wont be able to make it, sat wont work cuz i'd have to be near chicago around 5-6pm if i'm not already there friday night. i'm still waiting to see if the party for a friend of my b/f is on thurs or friday night...but i'm seeing my b/f on sat so sorry guys i will still stop by the mcd's on friday night will only be there for a bit if the party is on friday, but i'll stop by!

for those going to IN for this thing have fun!! wish i could go but the gas $ and the $ for entry i dont have...cuz of my project of redoing the interior. but take some awesome pics

Come on, i will go if somebody else will go with me.

I would wanna leave this area early though, the first 150 are getting dash plagues.

an entire 20 MPH!!! ohh yahh!!!

but it was hillarious there were LS1 trans am's behind me doing burnouts :rockon:

and yah it's yearly

this was the 2nd year of it

Guest

thats gay my car idle's at 20mph LoL

FruityOne

What doing burnouts at 20mph? Hahaha, that sucks.

I mean, c'mon. Why not 50 or 60 mph? Or maybe even 100mph? At 20mph it would take 7 1/2 minutes to cover ONE lap. Thats boring. At 100mph it would take 1:30.00 for a lap.

its actually kinda funny...in the flyer they gave us it said something .....we will be going around the track at approxamately 80 to 90 mph....and it had that striked out and then said 20-30 mph next to it LOL

but c'mon did you actually think they were gonna put all those cars on the track and let them do whatever they wanted.......heck half the people would have been afraid to go out there cuz they wouldnt want there car messed up from another crazy driver.....

FruityOne

I would'a said, "get the hell out of my way. Wanna be indy driver comin' through!"
