Indy MotoGP - Who's going ??

[knarlydog]

I'm sure there has been a post for this, but I did a search and didn't find it. Soooo, if there is one, please allow me a moment to get my helmet on before the rocks start coming my way....

Anyone from the group going to Indy ? I know I'm really stoked.... Can't wait to see the 125's, 250's and of course the 800's. I heard PJ is going to have a ride at Laguna and Indy.

The cherry on top of the whole thing off is going to the Indy Mile. I've never seen a mile dirt track before, so that's going to be killer.

Would be great to make plans to meet up there. Still on the fence about flying vs. taking the bike down....

OK, got the helmet on now, let the stoning ensue....

[RyanNicholson]

I'll be there.... sitting right by the beginning of the main straight

[Hoss]

Yep, I'm there. Sounds like similar seating as Ryan.

I'll also be at the Dirt Track race as well

[a13x]

I'll be there.

Laguna - iffy
Indy - Yes

[BLaZNKrON]

I will be there with a bunch of people from R6Central.com

[Mr Bread]

I'll be there.

im riding out there on the sv to meet ppl, on what else, but sv's my seating is on the last turn coming on to the main straight, and ill prolly be leaving burlington VT on the 7th of sept altho that is just what im planning right now. would be great to ride out with some other peeps, the leaving date is negotiable but i do want to stop by mid-ohio on my way out there. if anyone wants to ride out together or meet up somewhere along the way lets plan something cause that would be pretty cool.

Riding out, sitting in SW Vista! I am sooo stoked! The good thing is that even as you wander around the vendor area, all the vendor booths will have close circuit TVs to watch all the action!
I got my postcard with the schedule this week!

[Kid Thunder]

I'm going! Can't wait! Southwest Vista Turn section. Rows J & K seats 15 & 16 in both rows.

[JudyGT]

We'll be there too
Southwest Vista across fromt the jumbotron.
Are we all going to have some kind of way to find some of us?
Maybe T-shirts?
I need to get one 1st though

Hey Knarly,
If your flying, call soon. we opted for that instead of taking the Tuono just in case but am flying out Sept11th. Not too happy about that but rates are still cheap.

Nice! Yeah, I'm riding out as well. Going home via the Dragon. Hey, it's "on the way"

[bostongixxer]

I'll be there with a few others who don't post much. Penthouse A seats toward the end of the front straight. I'm hoping I can still go...have a trial in federal court starting on the 8th. I could be SOL.

[DucDave]

I'm there with VivaDucati....pretty awesome package. Driving out with my wife, visiting friends in Iowa and maybe the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame somewhere along the line...

I'm with the Viva Ducati deal as well. Looks like we got a nice bump to the VIP suites above the MotoGP garages, NICE !!

I decided I'm going to fly to Chicago and take the two hour drive to Indy. I'm trying to talk a friend who's driving to take my trailer and some bikes. Ideally a bunch of XR100's so we can play supermoto in the hotel parking lot !!

Decided on the fly out instead, did the same thing when I saw the date though.

[Stoneman]

Big Shirl & I were talking about doing this for our anniversary this year. But an all-inclusive trip, we think is gonna be a bit much right now...

[knarlydog]

Wouldn't it be nice if they had a couple of Indy track days after the GP race

Ohhh Yeahhhhhh...

[finao]

I'm there.....Penthouse A seats toward the end of the front straight

[wingerdor]

somebody said that there is a trackday Monday at Summit Point

[DucDave]

...and another with Sportbike Track Time at Putnam Park on Monday. Looks like a fun track and not too far from Indy...but not Indy!!

[wingerdor]

I just looked closer at the email I got today that says the MotoGP bikes are testing at IMS this week! It's free to get in! Damn, I'm too far away.

The schedule also says that ticket holders can walk around in the pits on Thursday afternoon of race weekend!

Winger, we could leave today and get there

Didn't know it was free,probably have a better chance of getting an autograph this weekend than in Sept?
