I talked to Alan this afternoon. He has 4 tickets. He says that if you don't have his cell number, just reply on this thread or send a PM. He'll be checking later this evening.
One more "detailed" update from Alan....
4 free tickets plust VIP parking fir IRL tomorrow night.
Respond on DMF. First come.
Can pick up tomorrow at the house or can meet at TMS.
<and this concludes our public service announcement. please resume your surfing activites>
What time would we need to meet you at TMS? Three of us are interested, so we could take a fourth with us maybe. Any singles out there ?
Update I have also have another 2 tickets, but they are not with the other 4 and no parking pass.
I can meet you or whoever at the credentials office at 6:00pm or a little earlier but to early it will boring.
Robbie Knievel does his jump at 7:00 and the race starts at 8:30.
I will be in the very 1st pit box tomorrow, plus scott dixon took the pole for the race, if possible I will try and go out with the team on the starting grid.
Ron I will PM you my digits. Call me
Any other takers?? Did I mention they are free!!
PLUS THANKS TO CHRIS AND JIM!!
Sounds great man. Didn't know that other stuff was going on out there. The Knievel jump will be kickass.
Anybody want to go with us? Room for one!
See you at 6:00 at exit 65 (pilot gas station) I will be in the tahoe.
We will be in a black Suburban. On the way!!
Got some traffic north side of downtown FW. I hope that's not race traffic already. That's what road beer was made for. [drink]
This is pretty cool. I can see LYD down there with the pit crew of the pole sitter who has also been leading the majority of the race. This is so freakin loud!

Yeah I've been to the irl race 4 of the last 6 years. It is loud for sure. Had some sweet seats on the start/finish last time out. Love the sound of those cars.
That was pretty fun racing. Some jackass took out Andretti who was leading with about 10 laps to go. Dixon took the lead and won. I hope they have plenty of rum and coke for LYD
Ron glad you guys had a good time!! Glad the team I was with WON. To bad they all had to be back in Indy by Monday morning so they couldn't stick around to party. If you thought it was loud in the stands try standing in the pits! Richard sorry I missed that PM, but yes those 2 extra tickets went to waste, sorry again. next year, I will try and give a little more heads up, but I didn't get those tickets until yesterday. Again thanks to Chris and Jim for getting the work out for me. Some of us don't have access to the web all the time. [laugh]
Okay lets play where's LYD??

Any luck?? Here's a hint (no not in yellow) I have a red hat on with a white shirt.
See if this helps!

CONGRATS on the win!!!
I love Indy car races...
Purpose-built racecars (or race "anything" for that matter) are where it's at!
Indy Car,
Top Fuel,
Moto GP
etc...
Looks like you had a great time!
Hmm... Is that an extension cord in your hands? Now we know why the pit crew lights went out. Alan... keep your hands off the electronics next time!
The cord must have been yellow, and Alan had to have it. ;)

After the sun went down, about 10 or 12 of the big "black box lights" that are visible in your picture went off. Fortunately, there was enough light cast on the track, that it didn't appear to make enough of a difference. I only noticed because the IRL radio announcers pointed it out. These are the big lights right along pit row (look like big black boxes on top of long poles) that are about 20 feet up in the air, and cast light right down on top of the cars when they're pulled in. Anyway, it didn't seem to make much of a difference.
Our seats were great. We were nearly right on the finish line! It was a fun time! The weather was great.
Well standing behind the lights we couldn't even tell. Glad you had a good time!!

Yep, the seats were great. Comfy and could see the track real well. We parked right by the exit of the VIP lot, and scampered out there during that last yellow flag at the end of the race. Beat the mad traffic rush. Good times [thumbsup]
