Best race at this track...Indy race very good..Castroneves ran out of gas with two turns to go....Indy lights race was outstanding....people have complained that the Indy cars are not as competitive this year. IRL has changed some rules to make it more competitive starting with this weekends race. I would recomend it!

With nascar being such a bad show lately I hope many people head out to catch this race. Kentucky is a great show and very cheap. You want great tickets very affordable go to stubhub.com and head to sparta saturday!

THE BURG! What better price could you want? Also, racing will be competitive AND I can bring a cooler into the facility. I had tickets for the Kentucky Speedway's first race and that turned into a fiasco.:34; I was sitting on Interstate 71 with around 20,000 other people for around four hours trying to get into the facility. I could see my seat with my binoculars and then the police came and said that the exit was closed and we were turned away. ![]() ![]() All you good ole boys head on down to Kentucky Speedway and sit with ole DW and holler boggity, boggity, boggity all night long. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

At least they're finally back to racing on an oval. I've grown weary lately of the "CARTification" of the Indy Racing Series with all the road course races.

I'm going. Was planning to go....then found tickets on Ebay for $10 a piece so that sealed it. I haven't been able to make it down there yet so looking forward to seeing a new track.
Anybody see the article in Speedsport recently (think by Dave Argabright)? Talked about Robbie Wolfgang looking to get into Indy Cars down the line. A company is helping him look for money to get things started. Talent should be enough to get you a ride, but those days are long gone and not coming back. It's nice to see a company helping a short tracker hopefully make it some day. Bringing money to get started is part of the game now so it's nice to see a driver working on that end of it. Shouldn't have to do that, but it is what it is. Nascar is starting to go that way too.... |

weather looks great for this weekend, 77 in the afternoon and the low 60's at night. always a good race and a great time down there. those of you who haven't been down there this year the parking entire area has had crushed gravel down so if it rains there is absolutely no chance of getting stuck. track is very bumpy this year so that will add some element to it.

If I based everything on a first experience I would have stopped going to lawrenceburg long time ago. I remember when you had to use the restroom in a drain at lawrenceburg. I have not stopped going. Always has to be somebody negative in the crowd I guess. I have yet to hear Boogity crap at a Indy car race. |
