Ya' know Spring has arrived when the 500 tickets show up in the mail!!
Silver Crown Championship Dirt Cars properly driven on a one mile dirt track are classic poetry in motion. Using that analogy, Jack Hewitt is one of the greatest poets of all time.
My mailman, (or perhaps it was the mailwoman), didn't let me down! Looking forward to my 51st consecutive 500; same seats since 1968. I know the cars aren't what we would like to see, as far as appearance goes, but the last few 500's have among been the best ever. Can't wait until Pole Day!
This will be our 32nd 500. We entered the ticket renewal system in 1986. At that time they said it would take us about 25 years to have enough seniority to get Penthouse seats. Well, for whatever reason it took about 6 years longer than that but we finally got those Penthouse seats and now we're setting in B Stand Penthouse and I think our present seats will be where we stay.
And you're right Ron, the past two 500's were the best racing at The Speedway we've seen of all 32 we've attended. Hopefully they will continue to be equally as exciting as '13 & '14.

28 years in the books. Indy 500 is a great event and life time memories. Put in some dirt track racing in and the month of may is always great in Indiana. The racing capital of the world.
