I got this experience for my husband for his birthday. We've been waiting months for the day to…read morecome around. I first saw this as an ad on Facebook for The Xtreme Xperience, I was very skeptical, it was a lot of money. I don't trust Facebook ads since I've been screwed by a couple companies. I did a lot of on line research and found out this was a legit company, i was still apprehensive. They have you sign waver after waver, on line in person and online again. We went to Putnam Park Road Course. Please use you GPS, Google Maps or Waze. The address we had took us to a side gravel road. Being able to see it on the map I was able to go to the next cross road and turn right a coupe times and we were there. At the gate we signed a paper waver. Already did one waver on line. After the gate we parked and had to scan a QR Code to sign another waver and get wrist bands and lanyards and a USB thumb drive ( more on that ). Husband went to a safety training class for about 20 to 30 minutes. After that it was time to line up for his ride along. He did the ride along around the course i think twice. He totally enjoyed that. Then on to another line for his car. He is a big guy so I reserved him one of the few vehicles that would accommodate his size and height plus the helmet. If you don't fit in the car you don't get a refund. Read all the rules there are very few and exact reasons you might ( might ) get a refund but it is unlikely. Even bad weather doesn't count. He was in a Ford Mustang Shelby GT500. He had a blast driving. He was actually a bit more apprehensive then I thought he'd be. I am always telling him to slowdown when he drives. i had no desire to do this it was all for him. He said the program was very good. Everyone was helpful and courteous. No issues. When you are done you go to a tent and they plug in your USB Thumb drive so you can see the video. I thought the Video was included, it was not it was another 65$ but you pretty much gotta have it. I also got him a T-shirt it was 30$ while he was in the class. Worth it because he was so happy.

My fiancé loves racing and we always have a great time when we visit the Indianapolis Speedrome…read more They have a great variety of races. There isn't a bad seat in the house however I suggest bringing bleacher seats for the wooden bleachers. Hold off on eating dinner before you come as well. Their nachos are delicious and their tenderloins look pretty good. I LOVE the margaritas that they sell and the sugar rim tops it off perfectly. For the kids or kids at heart, they have snow cones, cotton candy, and dippin dots! The biggest complaint I have for this place is that many fans smoke in the stands and it's hard to get away from the smell. I wish they would ban smoking. Also be prepared to hear some foul language as the fans are really invested into the races. If you can handle those few bad things, come on out for family fun at the Indianapolis Speedrome

This was my first time here, and has been rather a dream to come check out. LUCKILY i have some extended family that lives not far from the track. I only purchased tickets for the finals day because i didn't want to make a job out of coming for a whole week. I ended up going with the Top Eliminator Club tickets, which have a stout price, but it comes with some actual nice perks! There is a separate building you can go chill at with tons of seating and tv's everywhere to keep an eye on the action. It is an all-day event, so being able to go relax somewhere a little less loud and sit with your food is pretty nice. Outside there are tents that had I think 10 different types of drinks available free for TEC and you get breakfast in the morning which was fruit and sugary treats and then for lunch you get (1) run thru the lunch line so load up! (the wrist band has a thing they cut off) The food was pretty dang good! i figured after being in those big steamer trays for awhile all the flavor would have evaporated. It was well worth the extra cost and my wife who does not follow racing at all enjoyed the whole experience. The whole body rumble from the nitro funny cars was intense to say the least so the TEC building is a pretty cool thing to retreat to. I can't wait to do this again!

Lucas Oil Raceway Park in Brownsburg is about 10 miles west of Downtown Indianapolis. It includes a…read more0.686-mile oval track, a 2.5-mile road course, and a 4,400-foot drag strip which is among the premier drag racing venues in the world. The NHRA U.S. Nationals runs here on Labor Day weekend each year. It's the biggest, the longest and most historic drag racing event in the world. We always enjoy seeing the Pro Stocks, Funny Cars, Mototcycles, Alcohol Dragsters and Top Fuel Dragsters on the well maintained track. In 2008, NHRA shorten the distance of the Funny Car and Top Fuel Dragster car races to 1,000 feet from the standard quarter-mile for safety reasons. Acres of parking including ADA parking along with camping is available. There really isn't a bad seat in the stands but I always recommend purchasing reserved seating in the grandstands. I prefer to sit in section BB and fairly high up. Yes, you'll smell like nitro but hopefully the wind is blowing the smoke away from your seat. Oh, and earplugs or ear protectors are highly recommended as the cars are LOUD! Rain delayed the 2022 festivities on Saturday when we were there but after the track was dry, around 2:00, it was back-to-back racing the remainder of the day. Shortly after announcements started a sky driver floated down carrying a briefcase with $80,000 prize money for the Pep Boys NHRA Top Fuel All-Star Callout Speciality Race with Steve Torrence winning the prize money. The other exciting run on Saturday was Justin Ashley in a Top Fuel Dragster who broke the track record with 335.032 but Brittany Force broke Ashley's new record on Sunday with 337.75.

We were here for the first day of qualification, unfortunately it got rained out, but we still had a lot of fun. We were up in a Holman Terrace suites and they had lots of great food there and a couple bars. They had bourbon tasting as well as tons of places to grab different food and soft drinks, beer and wine. They had pork nachos, brisket, Asian food, hotdog and bratwurst, a whole lot of the other typical sports park things like pretzels, popcorn, ice cream, desserts. A beautiful place well taken care of recently went through lots of renovations just a great place to spend an afternoon, even if the cars aren't running.

I have been involved with both open wheel oval track racing and stock car oval track racing for 60…read moreyears. I've built, tuned, crewed on, and driven everything from street stock jalopies to late model stock cars, to supermodifieds and sprint cars. I've watched or driven close to 500,000 laps at various venues around the country, from 1/4 mile ovals to super speedways. IMS is perhaps the poorest place I've ever been to try to watch a race. I attended both the Indy 500 and the Brickyard 400 there last year. Whoever decided to build a 3 story grandstand on the INSIDE of the front straightaway and a museum in the infield was an idiot. There is not a seat in the house that can see more than about 1/4th of the track. What I mean is, at 220 mph a lap takes about 40 seconds. So every 40 seconds you get to see the cars go by for about 7-10 seconds at speeds so fast that you can't even read the numbers on them. If you are a race fan you'll be disappointed. If you're there primarily for the party, and the hip hop DJ blasting away in the infield you might have fun. I didn't. I would rather have paid to watch paint dry in a sauna. I live 4 miles from IMS. It took 4 hours to get home after the Indy 500. I paid for preferred parking and ended up a mile from the track. For the 500, the concession stands ran out of food at about 2 pm, or about halfway through the race. I'm not spending money to go to this venue in the foreseeable future.

We were immediately greeted with a big smile from a gentleman who proudly shared that he's been working there for 23 years. He took the time to explain everything, from the teen karts (which go up to 30 mph) to the adult karts (up to 40 mph). I was impressed to learn that licensed 16-year-olds can drive the adult karts..neat and a little scary! They offer a private room, though note that private events aren't booked on weekends and reservations aren't taken. However, if it's not busy, the private room is often available. Also, any racer under 18 needs a waiver signed by a guardian 24 hours in advance. The day of the party, we arrived early since it's first-come, first-served. The ladies at the counter were friendly and set us up in the private room, which was perfect for our group of twelve 16-year-olds. The space is roomy, has AV capabilities, and features a huge window overlooking the track. There's even an order window in the room for added convenience! The food options exceeded my expectations as well--the menu is larger than I expected, and the pizzas and tater tots we ordered were pretty tasty. We'll definitely be back. Such a great experience!
