I have never sat on the backstretch but i was wondering where you park to sit back there?
Tim, there is a parking lot behind the backstretch stands.

Will work for Race Tickets and Beer

I like turn four but be aware of flying mud and dirt balls when the cars hit the cushion. You can't go wrong wherever you sit at Kokomo. The earlier you get there the better, It will fill up fast.

I am betting there is.
Hopefully we can get in some duckpin bowling while in Indianapolis.
Try Mike's Pizza on south end of town. Dixon and Alto road, local, nice place, and great pizza.

Sit up as high as you can. We sat in the lower part, and I think we took home a bit of the track with us. If you have ever seen one of those "got dirt?" shirts, you get the idea. We really enjoyed the racing, but the 4 hour drive one way to Kokomo will probably keep us from getting up there again soon. Having the Monday morning alarm go off an hour and a half after you get to bed stinks.

There is a good pizza place about a mile from the track, Martinos. Family owned for 50 years. It is closed on Sunday, so Saturday would be a good chance to hit them. Very good pizza and sandwiches.It is located Just south of Morgan on Washington. Morgan is the road most take from US 31, Washington is the light right before you turn to go to the track As for the tenderloin, Rays Drive In has one of the largest in Indiana.It is located on thr same road as the track just south of the first stop light. Anyone can PM me if they have any questions.

Like anywhere else, I like to sit as high up in the grandstand as possible and UPWIND of the track!
