Still wondering why they moved this from Orlando where it's typically beautiful weather in December to....Indiana?

Plus I4. Fugg that.
I'll be there on Thursday for sure.. maybe Friday, as well.
The onslaught on coverage begins with this beauty.
All set up for business.
Hopefully see yall tomorrow for the day
It will be 82 this weekend in Orlando.
I guess if industry reps want to see all their industry rep friends, and nobody but industry rep friends, Indy is a good place to have it...

Love the blue BRE 510, the one that IRL is gone.
UTCC competitor Tracy Gaudu was named a Hoosier Hero.
When PRI was in Orlando, they had kart racing–like, real kart racing–in the parking lot. Always thought that was cool.
Another UTCC competitor.
