from what i've been hearing...budget a lot more time than that.

race starts at 1 pm, but i've been told to get there by 9am or 10am.
due to traffic and what not, and because our tickets are for the grand stand with no assigned seats and no seat saving.

then on top of that 2 hours of wait time to leave. last time a friend of mine went, after the race he grilled steak and potatoes for 6 people tailgate style. after they got done eating it still took them 45min to get from their parking spot to the expressway.

so a more accurate estimate might be 10 to 12 hours.

but on the bright side we can bring our own beer to the race...and not just to the parking lot. they let each person bring a cooler to you seat and beer is ok. not sure on hard liquor.

ITEMS FANS MAY ENTER MIS ADMISSION GATES WITH:
• One (1) soft-sided cooler or bag is allowed into the grandstands provided it fits the
required size: 6”x6”x12” or smaller. (examples: soft-sided cooler, scanner bag, fanny
pack, purse, camera bag, etc. Soft sided coolers with built in radios will be reviewed on
an individual basis.)
ONLY ONE SOFT-SIDED COOLER or BAG ALLOWED PER TICKET HOLDER.
• One (1) clear plastic bag is allowed into the grandstands provided it fits the required
size: 18”x18”x4” or smaller. (These clear bags may not contain ice or freezer packs.)
ONLY ONE CLEAR PLASTIC BAG ALLOWED PER TICKET HOLDER.
Items such as binoculars, scanners and cameras (which are not in a bag) are still
allowed in the grandstands. MIS® asks that fans utilize neck straps and belt clips to
bring those items through the gates.
• Standard seat cushions or stadium seats without armrests are also allowed. Seat
cushions and stadium seats with compartments will be reviewed on an individual basis.
• Video equipment is allowed but must not interfere with another guest’s enjoyment of
the race. The images may not be used commercially.
ALL ITEMS BROUGHT THROUGH ADMISSION GATES ARE SUBJECT TO INSPECTION.
FANS MAY NOT ENTER MIS ADMISSION GATES WITH:
• Hard-sided coolers, thermoses or insulated cups of any size.
• Glass containers, strollers, umbrellas, bicycles, roller blades, pets, banners, signs or flags.
• Any canvas/cloth or non see-through bag, backpack, purse, or container larger than
the allowed size of 6”x6”x12”.
• Firearms, knives, fireworks and items restricted by local, state or federal laws.

Well everyone I have some bad news. The truck is experiencing technical difficulties. If you guys have been following my too many opinions thread I am having issues. Still trying to track down the problem. So as of now I can't make it cause the truck is leaking fuel now and I don't want to chance the 4 hour drive. If things change I'll let you all know.

Crossing fingers!! Hope I get it fixed!
