However many you buy, you will wish it was more. Get as many as you can afford. This is the most fun you can have with your clothes on. Makes a great gift. Positives? Good cars with more capability than you will be able to use. These are actual retired race cars, mostly late model short track cars. Great instructors and staff. Radio communications in your ear while on the track. Passing allowed. You can really hang it out. Even if you're driving, get the ride along first, so you know how fast the cars are capable of going. Otherwise you'll waste laps getting up to speed. Drawbacks? They are usually running behind schedule. The personal equipment, firesuits, helmets, etc. are well used. If you have your own that meet the specs, bring them. By the time they are done explaining the damage policy everyone is spooked about damaging the cars. Get the damage insurance (upsell) and go for it. They will temp you with lots of upsells; videos, photos, insurance, extra laps. Conclusion? I highly recommend this company. I've been involved in short track oval racing for 50 years, and this is as close as most people will ever get to actually racing. It had been 20 years since I had driven a race car, and I was instantly back in those days.

Long wait. A friend…read moreand I were on the schedule for ride alongs at 2:30 PM. We didn't leave until around 5 PM. I believe the paperwork mentioned that they may be off schedule a bit and to allow an hour or so. That wasn't the case here. After being there for a couple of hours, we were informed that there was a gas leak earlier in the day that affected something and that something else happened. Because of that, they had one car instead of two and they were way behind schedule. They also had to reschedule people from the previous day because of rain, so I'm sure that was a part of it. Anyway, they offered us an extra lap around the track for having to wait so long. The two guys who worked in the ride along area and the driver of the car were all very nice. The ride was exhilarating. The driver would mostly ride along the outside of the track, only moving in a bit on the turns. I was slightly terrified because we were so close to the wall, but it was a blast. It goes by really quickly. Would I do this again? Maybe on a better day when I don't mind standing outside for a while. It was a cold and windy day.

We were immediately greeted with a big smile from a gentleman who proudly shared that he's been working there for 23 years. He took the time to explain everything, from the teen karts (which go up to 30 mph) to the adult karts (up to 40 mph). I was impressed to learn that licensed 16-year-olds can drive the adult karts..neat and a little scary! They offer a private room, though note that private events aren't booked on weekends and reservations aren't taken. However, if it's not busy, the private room is often available. Also, any racer under 18 needs a waiver signed by a guardian 24 hours in advance. The day of the party, we arrived early since it's first-come, first-served. The ladies at the counter were friendly and set us up in the private room, which was perfect for our group of twelve 16-year-olds. The space is roomy, has AV capabilities, and features a huge window overlooking the track. There's even an order window in the room for added convenience! The food options exceeded my expectations as well--the menu is larger than I expected, and the pizzas and tater tots we ordered were pretty tasty. We'll definitely be back. Such a great experience!

Awesome monster truck show at the Alameda County Fair, offering monster truck rides for guests…read morebefore and after the hour-long exhibition, and plenty of shaded seating for attendees in the Michelob Ultra Grandstage. The revving sounds of the monster trucks can be quite loud, but only momentarily, and it builds up the momentum for the crowd as the drivers ride the large mounds of dirt and entertain attendees with impressive maneuvers during their racing and monster truck freestyle performances. Anthony Ritter in the Dragon Slayer truck was a fan favorite, and for good reason. He had the speed, power, intensity, and confidence as he wowed the audience with his two wheeling and soaring through the air in his vehicle. Tuff trucks, like the Jurassic Park, added to the thrill. One tuff truck even tumbled, flipped over, lost its roof, and still landed on all four wheels... the driver giving a thumbs up out his window after all that, noting that he was okay, as the crowd roared with excitement and cheered him on. The announcer kept viewers educated and engaged throughout the show, adding some lighthearted humor with some of his remarks. And the event ended up being a lot more fun than I expected (free to attend with fair admission).

Jordan also did such an amazing job maneuvering around the trees and over to things we wanted to see. His ground crew, Geoff and Anne, were friendly and helpful, and navigated perfectly to the field where we landed.

Not only do these events have a big impact on local economy and civic engagement. they also shine a light on what Indianapolis has the to offer.

There are different ways to support ISC, including financial support/membership, attendance and advocacy, and volunteerism.

There was a small obstacle course of over-under walls, a farmers carry, and crossing a tight rope. The last stop was the Indiana State Museum where Abe Lincoln and some other characters cheered us on to the finish line. Participants all got a finisher's medal, t-shirt, and an arm band for a mobile phone. It was the first inaugural race and not overly crowded, but still seemed well-attended especially considering the weather conditions. Parking was convenient. I would categorize it more as a novelty race than a competitive one. There were a number of selfie stations and mascots along the course that participants were encouraged to engage with. There was free gear check, fruit, protein shakes, and one free beer each. We didn't stick around for the post-party due to the weather. I hope they continue to do this event and would only request restrooms at the water stations because they were difficult to locate along the route.
