Red Bull Moto GP race Indy Sept 14th, 2008
« on: April 13, 2008, 04:27:45 PM »
 The tickets are on sale for the Moto GP race in Indy in Sept and they are going fast. We were just wondering if any one in here was planning on going to the race??? The seating is reserved and they seem to be selling pretty fast. There are however some seating still available and they seem like pretty decent seats. We will be leaving either early Thursday morning (11th) and then after the race we are panning on doing a little riding out there in them black mountains....Probably come back through Missouri and Arkansas and ride some hills ion the Ozark Mountains...I here there is some pretty good riding out there and we are going to get us some of it ....banditone1250s....

I ordered general admission tickets and RV camping (see my post in Barber).  Most of the seats are general admissions- not just walk around.  Since this is a new track, I don't know where the best sight lines or photo areas are.  BTW, Barber is great for photos.  Bring your camera there for sure.

I'm already in the midst of doing a group buy of general tickets with my Yamaha board. We did a similar thing for the Laguna Seca GP race when it came back. I may end up having a few to spare, but too early to tell.

If this board wants to do a group buy, here's how it works - You pledge to buy 20 tickets. With the group buy you get free bike parking during the day, discounts at the gift shop, a group lap around the track (last I heard they're talking about doing that on the Thursday before or the Monday after...boooo!!!).

The good thing is that if you can't get 20 people to buy tickets you still get to keep the tickets you need but lose the group perks. I already got my invoice, but the money isn't due until sometime in August.

I'm definitely going!
Got my email confirmation pinned on my message board behind my comp.
I have written to the track regarding camping/parking as I'm taking my van to sleep in as well as a support vehicle  for some guys I race with. I still haven't got a reply yet. Anyone here got a direct link or email, phone number I can use to find out about camping/parking for the whole weekend? My reserved seat is for race day only, but for the other days I'm kinda hoping I can pop for gen admission at the track.
Been on several boards and there seems to be a great interest in nailing down a meeting point at the track, if it comes off there is gonna be one hell of a crowd of guys that have only talked on the forums, should be a blast!

yes there is camping areas owned by the Speedway that you can reserve (first come, first serve).  Check the web site, it lists locations, maps, and amenities.  You can also talk to the ticket office about it. 

Basically, there are no hook-ups, take water & generator.  There is one lot with concrete.  I have a reservations on the lot NW of the track for (must be over 18 years old) it's across G'town Rd @ 24th St. 

See you there.

Had a few guys fall through on our group buy on the other board so if anybody needs tickets let me know. I'm turning in the funds on 7/18 and buying however many tickets we end up needing. Kind of sucks that for all the other races they run at Indy group buys aren't due until 30 days before the race, but for the Red Bull they're making it 60 days  :annoy:

Sorry, was referring to my Yamaha board that I belong to. Had another guy back out last night that officially killed our group buy, so now I'm having everybody get tickets on their own. Only big perk out of the group buy that I wanted was the lap around the track, but since they're doing it on the Thursday prior to the race nobody is going to be down there to do it anyway.

I turned in our money for my Yamaha board yesterday. We fell short on the group buy, but the rep was nice enough to still offer us some of the group perks even though we fell short. I can't promise that he can do the same with ticket purchases after this week since he his mailing out to me the tickets along with the bonus stuff next week.

What you would (could) get: free motorcycle parking for the weekend, discount to the souvenir shop, lap around the track (on the Thursday prior to race weekend).

If anybody is interested send me a pm and I can provide you with his contact information. Again I can't promise that he will extend the offer after this week, but if you'd like to try let me know.

I'd love to do the lap around the track but we aren't going to get there until Friday night  :rant2:

Tickets should start going out this week.
