Indianapolis, Indiana

Top view of my bike, out in the rain.

Brian got a great room, or maybe I did... the woman checking me in "upgraded" us to a better room...

Big enough for a Robietech event!

Brian Arrives!

Unpacking... the rain is over for the weekend.

Motorcycles get free parking on the infield!

They had toys for kids and thought it cool to include a motorcycle!

 

Race Corvette on display

Older Race 'vette.

Brian suggested this popular shot at the track.

LOTS of parades before the start of the race.

Shot from our seats...

Out of the direct sun

Great view of the pit row!
(Brian's BEEN here before!)

Motorcycle cops leading the procession

He's standing up on the bike...

Not a good shot... but he's standing...

The race has started!

These cars are zipping by at 220+ MPH!

Darn digital camera! It locks focus on the background.

Digital cameras focus SOOOO slow...

The best shots are of cars in the pits!

THE fastest pit crew I witnessed... Red Bull

A better shot while cars are under caution...

The checker flag!

The winner! Helio Castroneves!

He's climbing the fence!

Tote board showing the standings...

Official announcement... Tracy files grievance.

200 laps traveled, average of 166 MPH

Even the trucks are impressive!

Car goes on top, shop is below...

Motorcycle cops near the helipad... security wasn't bad, we were not stopped for searches.

Oh SURE... the camera can freeze the spinning blades...

Dumb camera... why can't it freeze a car like this??

The bike parking area.

Brian said this was the biggest bike turn out in years.
