You haven’t been to an IndyCar race until you’ve been to the Indy 500. There is nothing on Earth like the pageantry, tradition and speed of Indianapolis. Hopefully soon you’ll make it to the Racing Capital of the World
100%, nothing like the 500. I've been to about everything at Indy in my life time from F1 to vintage sports cars but there is nothing that remotely has the feel of race day for the 500. I agree you really need to go if you get the chance.
I couldn’t agree more, there is nothing on Earth better than race day at Indy. I’ve been to 75+ NASCAR races, including 7 Daytona 500s and the Brickyard in the heyday, but NOTHING compares to an Indy 500. I cry a little every time I hear Back Home Again in Indiana on race day
The Indy 500 is an experience like none other! I went in 2017, and it's what really started my love for IndyCar. Hope you get to go someday, it's definitely worth it.
I went to the Detroit Grand Prix this year. It’s was a great fans experience. Lol also I met David Land at the race at Belle Isle. I plan on going to the Detroit Grand Prix next year. But my bucket list to go to Indianapolis 500. Glad you had fun DannyB.
Had a great time .. Grand Stand 3 in the Chicane with a view of the finish line. Thunderstorm delayed it for a while so it was nice to Über home after the trucks got done
I was getting ready to type y'all ain't too far away from Gateway right when you said it. that's my home track I'm about 30 minutes away and I'll be going to Gateway in a couple weeks. I met David land there last year he's a really cool guy. hopefully Sunday can meet you all I'll be making out the gateway. thanks for branching out into Indy car and sharing it with your subscribers. ☮️❤️🎵🌍🤗🏁
I always tell pple television does not do it any justice, huge difference watching it on tv vs in person. The site, sound, smell ❤ my dream is to attend the big one in Indianapolis
Overall, it was okay...from the business side of things, as media, I felt very restrictive on what I could do because on Friday, I ran in to issues of not even being allowed in the actual press conference room because security couldn't find my name on the list of assigned deadline tables. (I was simply extra media that was placed in to overflow rooms) And then in the pits, things were even more restrictive there because they wouldn't let any media near the pits during the race, and there was no set post-race interview area for media like there is for NASCAR. So, was it a neat experience? Yes, and I'm thankful to IndyCar for allowing us the opportunity, but...I'm glad it was just something close to home because I couldn't see myself going far away to cover IndyCar like I do NASCAR. My biggest regret was taking a day off work from my full-time job, but I didn't know what to expect. With all of that being said, I wish everyone the best with the Music City Grand Prix, but I will likely not be applying for credential access this year, as my time would be better suited elsewhere this year.
As someone who watched a street race in NYCEprix for Formula E four times (doubleheaders mind you) I agree that being in same grandstand spot while we had a screen it feels like if you need vantage point to see overtaking or close racing you might be situated there. There was standing only sections in some of fan zone areas they set up but you hope there is a screen because if there isnt then you might not know whats going on. I can see for those wondering about nascar street race some may not like the idea of seeing the section and screen without moving around to different spots and thats something to adjusted oppose to ovals where you see pretty much everything. I have criteria in which if my section (which was the hairpin overlooking the Manhattan skyline) has good possible overtaking and close action then im okay with it. As for Nashville GP well it look like the elimination chamber match or hell in cell with amount of hard racing and crashes yet the stats show more overtaking in the race its so bizarre
Without the bias towards nascar, was there anything different or something Indycar did better as far is the Midway, fan zones, and fan engagement? I've never been to an Indycar race before. I'd like to attend one
Not sure. We had media passes but weren’t permitted to be in the pits during the race, which shocked me. At NASCAR, that’s usually one of the only passes that can let you stay there during the race.

First of many IndyCar races I hope
Summer Slam was a Banger. Glad to see you guys got to witness it live.

God I miss Nashville. Painters Alley and Broadway. I can only imagine if I could do it on a race weekend !!!
Pretty dang cool, Claudia and Danny. 👊

You can go to Barber in Birmingham. It’s a fantastic track.
Indycar has so many amazing tracks I recommend baber motorsports park there is so much beautiful art around the track it's amazing.

What a street circuit!
If you guys are into dirt racing you gotta check out the Knoxville nationals .. in Iowa .. Indy is on my bucket list as well
Honestly ( and I know this is late) did you like the experience even with all the delays, yellow flags, red flags, etc.?

If you think IndyCar is great, step-up and attend a FORMULA ONE race. Nothing else compares.
Can’t afford that. Lol.
F1 can’t compete with the Greatest Spectacle in Racing. The Indy 500 !!!

Was that a standard paddock pass or something extra to get on pit lane?
