        Has anyone driven Indianapolis Motor Speedway?
        Apparently this is an annual event. Is it worth doing?

        The drive date is June 15th.

        Does the tour bus count ?

        From what I've heard, the drive you're referring to is behind a pace car and stuck at like 30mph. If I lived in Indiana I would probably try it once, but I sure won't go out of my way to do it when I could be averaging 80MPH+ at my favorite local road course.

        One other thing: isn't that the same day or right after the JPM/Gordon car swap event ? If you're in driving distance combining the two would be pretty neat I think.
        If you go, shoot video then you can play it back at 4X speed and pretend you were actually racing
