    Default First time to Indy 500 next year!! advice

    So am retired used to race formula 45 years ago. My wife wants to go to the Indy 500
    and she really wants to see what it is like.

    not expecting anything like that but can anybody steer me toward a person or persons that can set us up for first time weekend at Indy.
    Thanks

    Not sure what you mean by setting you up, but my advice is to get garage passes so that you can visit the garages and watch the teams prep the cars. Almost more fun than the race is to go for qualifying and then Carburation Day. Most likely someone here can introduce you to a team and possibly get you a pass to their suite and the Hot Pits during everything BUT race day.

    Others nay advise differently, but if you stay downtown, there are lots of buses to and from the track that will be was easier to use than driving.
