I hope there is a good reason they moved it, now I'm not going to either. I can't justify the 2 days off and the travel cost since I'm coming from a long way.
very sad
i'm coming a long way also but i'll be there
nothing like a big car

There is parking in the infield but I don't know how much of the race you can see from that vantage point. Their is handicapped areas in the main grandstand that would offer much better viewing for sure.

I've been in the infield, turn 2, for a few years now. There is plenty of parking there and the view is O.K. Mudpacker is right about a better view from the stands, but if ya gotta be stuck in a car watching a race, turn 2 may be your answer.
It's about half of the grandstand ticket price for the infield.
I too was at the new revised addition of the Hoosier Hundred in 1953. I had sold tickets for the 1953 Indiana State Fair and they asked me to sell admission tickets at the gate for race in September. After closing the sales at the gate we watched the remainder of the race while seated in the aisles. The grandstand was packed. As stated before it was a close finish with the 4 drivers almost covered by a blanket. I have attended most of the races since then and plan on being there next week.
