I can vouch for anything on and around Kirkwood Ave. I spent about half my time as student there and IU somehow still gave me a diploma at the end of 4 years. They have some great bars.....I mean places to study. Good times.

It is my personal policy that every trip to Indiana has to include at least one visit to the Mug N' Bun

If everyone in your group is above 18, then I recommend Show-Mes in Terre Haute. Its basically a Hooters except the "waitresses" have a little different clothes.

Thanks for all the suggestions

Getting close to packing and excited about the week.

I forgot, any of the tracks have good food (or bad food)?

Most of the restaurants especially the steak and ribs places sound great. Just wondering if I will have time to go to them, planning on going to the race tracks first, getting a seat. From my previous experience at Gas City during Sprint Week, needed to get there early for seats (and parking?). I know Lawrenceburg has lots of seating.

Thanks again for all the suggestions, doesn't sound like I will go hungry on this trip
