Haven't been to a 500 race, but we've been to the 500 museum at the track and my wife's been to time trials a few times. Last summer we saw the Stones play at the speedway on the 4th of July at night followed by fireworks. :laughing: There's lots to do in Indy. The track is huge. You can't really get a handle on it until you go inside the stands.

The Air Force Museum in Dayton, OH is FREE!!!! Always FREE!!! :thumbsup: Its sensory overload if you're an airplane buff. There's somewhere over 360 airplanes and missiles on display, all indoors! They're opening a 4th building this summer.

The Studebaker National Museum up in South Bend, IN is OK, too. But its only a couple hour deal.

The University of Notre Dame is also in South Bend. A very beautiful campus and a good walking tour.

There's an Auburn, Cord, Duesenberg museum over in Auburn, Indiana, not too far of U.S. 69 that might be on your way to or from Indy.
