We made reservations for the VIP Grounds Tour for our son's birthday, since he is a big race fan. When we arrived, we were told that we could would not be able to be on the track that day. Apparently, the folks who own/run the track do not give the museum much notice. That was a let-down, but we got...

The tour or should I say the lap around the Indianapolis Motor Speedway is worth the $8 ticket. It truly is worth the price and I highly recommend it.

Although I am not a race fan, going here made me appreciate the sport and history of it. I love the opportunity we had to go on the bus tour of the 2.5 mile track. Saw the bricks of the brickyard up close and personal. If you are in Indy, it is worth going to at least once.

5 reviews Visited during Indy 500 and museum was very crowded. However it had nice setup and a lot of great racing history. Location could be bigger to allow for large crowds, however the museum was enjoyable and the gift shop had most of the souvenirs we were looking for. It's a must see

We were a large group (20 people) and I called in advance to make sure we could take the track tour. Brian Bobay, the track coordinator went above and beyond to make sure our groups (mostly veterans) had a great tour. He even gave them a "shout out" over the loudspeaker, thanking them for their service!
The track tour takes...

Didn't break the record but did break the record for most Mustangs...

This track is huge, 2.5 miles around. You cannot see all of the track at once. It's located on 16th Street, one the main streets through Speedway, IN. If you love cars, this is the place where it all happened. Automobiles built in Detroit were tested here before they were put on the market.
I still can imagine going 240...

The museum has good collection of race cars. Kids enjoyed seeing the 'Turbo' model there (that is how they came to know abt Indy). The model car snap is very very affordable. I am glad they had a souvenir snap for just $5 incldg digital snap mailed to u.

Though I've lived in Indy most of my life, had never been to the IMS museum. Surprisingly was fun, even for someone who's not into cars or racing per se. There were lots of the actual winning cars, some great photos and memorabilia. The staff were nice, happy to talk through some of the history of racing. The bus tours...
