The Indianapolis 500 is certainly the most popular and prestigious automobile race in the world. It has a very long history and it is a huge annual event that seats 257 325 patrons in person and attracts millions of viewers on television. I have been told that it is a 'bucket list' destination for many sports fans. The sound of the cars screaming past that sounds at incredibly high speeds is something that can only truly be experienced in person. I have seen the Honda Indy in Toronto, so I do in fact know how loud those cars are. It is something to be seen and heard to be believed. Are you an auto-racing fan?
