Good luck, my dad's account with the Speedway has 30 years of seniority and he's been trying to get seats there for a decade.

Yeah turn one tickets are a tough find, unless you get them on stubhub or ebay and you can expect to pay 350-700 dollars per ticket.

Also, I know Bourdais has not yet been on track today, but that only gives us 32 cars and drivers. Who is the one driver that is missing? EDIT - Nevermind. Oriol Servia hasn't been out either in car 22.

I feel sorry for Simona and Jean, but Lotus have got to go. I'm all for getting a couple extra cars to boot them out.

Not that both the Lotus drivers aren't already thinking about pulling out anyway.

Oh, missed that post, sorry. That seems very unlikely, though...

That's all well and good but can't Honda just give these unfortunate struggling Lotus powered teams Honda engines just to get rid of Lotus full stop?

This should be one fun happy hour. I believe someone posted 5k? 10k? For the fastest lap of the day.

Plus this time tomorrow would be the start of the shootout. Everyone wants a read on late in the day track conditions.

Stupid IMS Radio.... This is the first time they remember is a long time that Indy's been the first oval they've been to....

... Forgot about 2011? Or is that a long time now?
