They’re probably better than Mussberger, etc. too! I listen to the live feed on the IMS radio network via the link at indycar.com while watching the ABC broadcast and indycar.com feed. BTW - the video feed on ABC is seven seconds delayed from the indycar.com video feed.

Don’t forget there’s golf and baseball too..

But if we’re lucky, we got 1100 miles today unless we get extended play, forecasts look good. ;-)

Indy - Sun and clouds mixed. High 76F. Winds SSE at 10 to 15 mph.

Lowe’s - Lots of sunshine. High 79F. Winds S at 5 to 10 mph.

When you go, take an entire week and go to as many events as you can. I especially enjoy the awards banquet.

Thanks for the advice. I grew up in Columbus, OH, and we often went over for the time trials (the most fun IMO). But you’re right, the festivities go beyond the race itself.

We took our kids there a couple of times during the summer and rode the tourist bus around the track. That was fun, too.

Thanks for the "flash" map. I take it, then, that the venues shown are in proportion to the size of the Speedway.

Velly interesting!

First they skipped God Bless America, now ABC isn’t airing the prayer/invocation either.

I’m guessing that ‘Horrible’ is for that rendition of the National Anthem. Holy hell that was downright painful...and where’s the ‘Back Home Again’?!?!

At least you get to watch most of it...here in Indiana, they black it out. If we want to watch, we have to wait until tonight when they replay it.
