International Motor Speedway (IMS)


We left Columbus, IN this morning on the way to Lafayette, IN. We were going past Indianapolis and decided to stop and tour the Race Track. there was quite an impressive collection of retired race cars in the museum. The Speedway was 100 years old in 2009. During our stay and tour of the grounds we found out some tire manufacturers were testing tires on some cars, so we stayed around to have lunch and watch the test cars speed by at 140-150 MPH. Very impressive and LOUD!!!!! It was a great adventure.
In the morning (Wed) we have a tour of the Subaru factory and right now we are across the street from Purdue, University. We will be spending the evening somewhere close to the factory. We will be in Milwaukie, WI on Thursday.
