Aero Cars at the Brickyard 400, July 29-31 2011 - Registration Form Posted

[Aero426]

This has come together VERY quickly.    I was contacted by a representative of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway a couple weeks ago.   They are interested in doing a display of Wings and Aero Fords for the Brickyard 400.   I have quietly been asking a few people, and there is enough interest to make this go.     The dates are Friday July 29th, Saturday the 30th, and Sunday the 31st.     This is a fantastic opportunity to be at a premier event on the NASCAR tour, and to be able to drive your car on the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.  

Friday - Display at the Speedway.   All cars will be inside the track.   If we have enough cars on hand (10+), we will be able to get on the track for parade laps.

Saturday is qualifying day and there is a two hour break between qualifying and final practice where we will be able to get on the track for parade laps.

Sunday is race day, and schedule permitting with NASCAR, there will be another parade lap before the race.  

The track will be providing weekend passes to our attendees bringing a participating car.   You will need to let me know you are coming, and who will be attending.  

Saturday and Sunday are the big days, so if you cannot make Friday, you will still have plenty to see and do at the race track.  

I have a hotel lined up at a reasonable price, $99 per night, and will announce that shortly.  

So who is in?   This is a fantastic opportunity to be at a premier event on the NASCAR tour, and to be able to drive your car on the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

Now THAT is worth taking a trip....... Man... I wish I had more time to plan.. But, who knows......... If I can wing it, I would love it...

[RECHRGD]

Damn!!!!  I want to go!!!!  But no wing car  If I glued a wing on my '68, would I qualify?

[70Sbird]

Doug,
quick question, would the weekend pass be for each car, or each driver/passenger?

Scott, I need to get them a list of who is attending with each car for passes.    So they will cover driver and passenger.

Count us in.  After all, we don't have to spend our hotel/fuel money this year to get to the national meet!

With the savings, you can bring both cars then.

Car is still in a bazzillion primered pieces, so I'm out...

Sounds like a great time though....

...Maybe if I stand out on the side of interstate 70 with my thumb up in the air and my

DSAC/Talladega T-shirt on, I can catch a winged ride
