Went there Saturday, it's easy to find, if your looking to go there!
I-74 west into Illinois, past the 3 major Danville exits, take exit 210 (Rt 150), turn left, and the Vermilion County fairgrounds is on the right (a no outlet street) about a half mile down Rt. 150.
Don't forget the hour time difference!

itsanonwingthing, about how long did it take you from cincy? I am just looking to visit a track that I haven't been to, and I guess if I want to see Stanbrough run on a Saturday night this is the place to be. Thanks Bob Bressert

Bob,
I was @ IMS Saturday afternoon, and made it out there from the Speedway in about an hour & 10 minutes. Coming home, with the cruise control set on 75 mph, it took right at 3 hours to the Western Hills area. It’s a fairly easy drive, all highways, with very few vehicles on the road coming back home. Racing was really good, like the old ‘Burg, with cars staying in touch with the front of the pack, not spread out after 2 racing laps. Too bad it’s not closer!!

There are a bunch of hotels off of the first exit (Lynch Rd.) on I-74, once you cross the Illinois state line.
