Concessions, what is worth standing in line for? Thanks for any insight you can share.

I've got the best seat in the house! (video deck) But before I got that seat, I tried to sit on the hill in turn 4. I think that's the best seating. You don't even have to turn your head to see the whole track!

Hope you get to make it. Bloomington's a great track!

Thanks again for all the replies. We made it over to the track last night. The whole family (5 of us) couldn't make it, but my youngest daughter and I made the trip. We sat on the turn 1 hill and had the perfect angle to see the cars throwing it sideways entering the turn. The battle between the leaders, especially Short and Bland, before the caution came out for the 48 car was worth the trip over and back. The most important part, Hannah loved the ice cream! We had a great time. That was definately not my last time going to Bloomington.

Glad you enjoyed it Joe. Always glad to have new fans at Bloomington, or any other Indiana track.
