Check the IMS website for museum info and schedules. Early morning pole day you should see all the cars on the track. That's an early start, so not sure how far you are traveling. Lots of days you can find free street parking in the neighborhood to the west of the track, as long as you don't mind walking. As mentioned, bring your own cooler with drinks and food. Prices at the track are expensive. Have fun. PS....check the schedules for local short tracks racing many evenings, too. 🏁
