AS stated, the west side of the track on 136 is a mess! I suggest you take the "bus" idea being offered if you can!

Anyway, anyone coming to the US Nationals should stop by the Don Schumacher's Wonder Wagon AA/FC pit and say HI!

Does it get me in as part of the crew?

Re: An idea for Indy...the Nitro Bus

After speaking with those involved, with the time constraints and rising fuel costs, I am sorry to report that the bus will not be running this year. It was a valiant effort by many. We will be working on it for next year..hopefully with the cooperation of the city. Thanks for your suggestions and interest.

The good news...looks like the road construction will be done for the race!

Re: An idea for Indy...the Nitro Bus

Thanks Bill and Mark....I was really excited about the idea when I was told about it - and even volunteered to help promote it. The best laid plans of mice and men, I guess. We did lay some groundwork for the future.
