Indy MotoGP 9-14-08
This is going on my calender!
http://www.autoblog.com/2007/07/16/indianapolis-loses-f1-gains-motogp-in-2008/ MotoGP will bring the new Red Bull indianapolis GP to the Brickyard on Sunday, Sept. 14, 2008. Incredibly, this will be the first time in almost 100 years that motorcycles have raced at Indy. The last time was August 14th, 1909, according to Indy. For the event, Indy is constructing a new 16-turn, 2.601-mile motorcycle road course on which riders will travel counter-clockwise, which is rare for a road course event at Indy. The event organizers promise lots of passing and side-by-side racing, as well. Like any big motorsport event, the Red Bull Indianapolis GP will be a three-day affair with supporting races and qualifying that begin on Friday, Sept. 12, 2008. |

How does Indy operate as far as tickets? I put in my order and got an email saying "This is not a receipt. This is simply a summary of your application, Your credit card will not be charges until seating assignments have been made."
I placed the order on 7/16, thefirst day the sale was made public. Just got back from Monterey, where we attended the US Red Bull GP for the third time. Looks like they may have gotten a lot of things right. Highlight, aside from the racing, was meeting Stoner in the paddock pre-practice session Sat AM. He took the time to chat for a minute, signed my ticket holder and graciously took a photo with me and my wife. He was completely down to earth and friendly and very relaxed. |
