Remember how nice I've always been to you and how I defended your opinion that time...

I assume Ferrari will win because they have good top speed, and 1/2 of that track is straight. I'm just guessing... Milion other factors matter, one of them is Renaults everyday improved car.

We all want to go :p

I love the oval part of the indy but the infield is just crap. Its not worth watching at all and the drivers certainly don't enjoy it. I'd rather see them do the whole oval.

Nope, won't be able to go. And though I think Long Beach would make the best USGP, with Laguna Seca and Road Atlanta (the full course at VIR?) close seconds, I don't think this is the last Indy for F1.

There is a very good chance I'll be about an hour away from IMS during that weekend, so I was thinking of going to see that race as well. It's not that expensive, and it is close, so I might as well go. But, I don't know the circuit. What is the best place to watch the race.

I've been looking at the North/Northwest Vista/Grandstand J..are those good places?

Thanks

P.S. What is the difference between a platform and a deck at the IMS?

we will be sitting on the northwest vista pretty good spot and cheap too depends on what you want to see the cars at full song sit along the front strech cars out braking eachother sit at the end of it there realy isnt a bad seat in the whole place. If you are there on friday or saterday go to the infeild and sit in the grass and walk around. Also a ferrari club parks all of there cars accros the street

i still have another ticket first person to hand me some money can have it

if you need to fly in ill pick you up at the airport

the deck is the lower level the platform is the second teir of stands or vis versa i cant rember this early in the morning (was at a dirt track race all night)
