So tickets are on sale. Not that any one would know since they didn't advertise. The only way I found out was going to Indy's web page looking up the red flag. Get yours now. Down side is that its through ticketmaster so there is an extra cost added to each ticket.

I am excited again for 3 days of racing!

I joined the mailing list to be notified when they went on sale. Yeah that didn't happen. I'll need to order this week to get better seats this year.

I was on the list too but that list belonged to the old promoter so the promise of top picks was washed out. I still managed to get seats where I wanted. Section 5 before the hair pin so you get them roaring past, can see the hairpin and can see the turn after. Plus its close to the exit by the harbour so I can eat at the Irish joint. Love their shepherds pie.

Too bad about Ticketmaster. I have to really, really want to see a show to patronize that company. " Sorry, all the concert tickets sold out in 11 seconds. If you would like to click this link to our wholly owned subsiduary, you can buy them at scalpers pricing."

Holy pricing Batman! Last year I couldn't go due to work, but I was looking at section 5 last year at $110 a piece. This year the same section including ticketmaster tax they are $200! Thats formula 1 territory....

Anyone do the general admission there last year? Are there any good places to see the track without buying grandstand seats?

We just got back from Detroit GP, and tickets were 25 dollars a day. 200 is a bit ridiculous!

GA wasn't bad. Fridays are all GA so last year I walked the entire place. There are a few places to see the track.

Blame the city for the high prices. They are making sure they get theirs by forcing the promoters to put a portion of the ticket sales into an escrow.

ticketmaster says "Reserved seats will go on sale 7-15-12"?

so it wont let me choose a section and see pricing after all the fees? (I am looking at saturday only)

I think I'm doing it wrong.

Looking at the dates again, I am thinking we wont be able to go this year anyways. Going to be out of town the week before the race, don't think we will be up to driving a few hours to the race after getting home.
