Caught that

70+ yrs. Been to the race 10 or 12 times. This is the first time I’ve ever seen the race. Pretty cool.

The blackout stuff is stupid. They may have just recruited a lot of new (or former, like me) fans back to the sport, just by televising it live.

At least he didn’t go into full stupid mode and crash them both. He held a good block but he couldn’t contain Newgarden.

We had infield bleacher seats for a couple years, but you only get to see the race for about 4 seconds until they get back around to you. Just wasn’t into racing that much given the whole Indy. experience. Traffic n other issues.

I will definitely be looking into, I suppose some kind of pay TV type deal. Unless they start doing it like they did today. I liked what I saw.

INGO'ers, be safe getting out of there and home. You know the predators come out after dark.

Really good race. Carpenter's team did fairly well, even with him getting stuffed entering the pits.

I know my nephew is going to be p*****. He's a wheel man on Herta's pit crew.

Yeah, the inside seats aren’t that great unless you’re right behind pits and enjoy watching the crews work. We sat right underneath the tower for the inaugural brickyard and it kind of sucked.

For years, we sat in the entrance to turn three high up just a few rows below the camera platform. Excellent view of the exit of turn two, the back stretch, three and short chute.

We sat inside on turn one during that race. I can say I was there for the first race but that was it. Watched a kid in front of us fall through the bleachers and almost hit the concrete footer. We were second from top row and it scared the crap out of everyone behind him. I don’t think the parents knew until someone told them.

Doug Bowles and his team could not have done a better job with today's event. Well done....very well done indeed.

I seen this in the movies once. Stick your head out and start whaling a siren sound.

I probably have not thought about that movie in 20 years.

Its the short term memory that goes…..what were we talking about?

Took us 2 hrs to get to 65 south....donkey balls

Every year.

It's amazing they can't do anything to make it right. You would think they would have plenty of practice

108 times must not be enough. I just wish they would release the traffic patterns. Why does it need to be a secret?
