Indy 500 Seating Options

We decided to take the kids and go to the 500 this year for the first time and are considering seats in either section H or J coming out of T4.

I can't tell from the 3D seat view if you can actually see pit lane or not. Anybody have any experience sitting in either of those sections and how far down the main straight you can actually see ?

Also, how bad is parking ? We will be driving in that morning and plan to get there by 8:30 at the latest.

Thanks in advance for any advice and help !

We used to sit in H. I loved it. Can see most of T3 and T4. At least half of the main straight. Part of pit lane. And you're right across from a video board for the rest of the action.

Forget what section I sat in in t4, but I do remember the track is big, really really big. You cant see all of it big.

Thanks for the feedback gprsh924, appreciate it. Sounds like they'll be a good choice.

You're welcome. My dad had the same seats for 20 years. I went 6 or 7 times before sports got in the way.
