Does the ticket cost cover just the driver? Is there an extra charge for passengers? I checked the website but could not really find an answer. The Northeastern Indiana MINI club, Summit City MINIs will be attending we are excited to be meeting other clubs and MINI enthusiasts from around the state

So if you can get the word out to other clubs around the area, please do do. Would like to see as many MINI's there as we can attract. Would love to see a large contingent of MINI's circling the Indy oval. |

Here is an update on the schedule for the Automobile Festival that I received today. We will be finalizing a location and time for the MINI's to meet up and drive into the track together and will post that here.
We will meet up in the Kohls parking lot in the Speedway shopping center on Crawfordsville Road between 7:00 and 7:15 and head toward gate 10 on 30th street around 7:30
Passes were mailed recently so those who registered should have received that information. If a member that registered did not receive the items, please have them call 1-800-822-4639.
At this time we are in the mid-200’s. I am guessing that we’ll end up between 250 – 300. (these are all cars not just MINI's)
I also want to inform you of a slight change….again, so there are no surprises on the day of the event. If you all recall, the plan was to have you park in the grass lot behind the pagoda. This was a lot we internally refer to as the “N lot”. We have made a change that I hope you will be happy with because we are moving everyone onto pavement! In addition, the pavement is racing surface because it’s part of the Moto-GP course that runs through our infield. If anyone is concerned about this, please let me know.
Here is an updated and more detailed schedule:
AUTOMOBILE FESTIVAL
8:00 AM – Automobile Festival participants can enter North Tunnel Gate 10 (Off 30th street)
8:00 AM – 9:00 AM – Participants are staged for track lap
9:00 AM – Track is open for Automobile Festival laps
9:30 AM – After track lap is completed participants will be directed to designated parking areas (Moto GP Race Course)
