Trust me, it’s loud and hasn’t gotten any quieter from the year before

I stood above one of these cars on a caution at COTA they are definitely still loud.

Yeah, running on ovals is for REAL race car drivers. I distinctly remember Michael Schumacher admitting he was too scared to ever run the oval at Indy. Keep sipping your champagne and watching your parades. I’ll continue to watch the real men and heroes drive at the greatest race track on the planet. 😉🤟🏻

What in the world ate you talking about? There were no parachutes or jumpers. This was some planes flying around the perimeter of the track.

@@jscorp681 Exactly, there WERE no parachutes or jumpers in your clip, so why was your example pic of a man in mid-air? You know how UA-cam is set up where you scroll (on the right) thru clips to view, and each one has a pic about 1" by 2". That small 'thumbnail' pic that's attached to the clip title is usually a snapshot from the clip described. The thumbnail attached to your title: "2019 Indy 500 Flyover fly around finale" is a pic of a skydiver without a chute which never appears in your clip. Maybe the pic is different on your end? Cuz I only see a skydiver mid-air with a cloudy sky behind him in the 1 x 2' pic attached to your clip title. I'm very curious.

You know what?? MY BAD!! I'm totally wrong and mistaken. I thought that angled pic of the Warthog was a man in mid-air. I am so sorry that I challenged your pic. I don't mind admitting when I'm wrong, and I sure was on this one. My apologies to you and other watchers. Carry on!

It’s pretty amazing. I’ll be attending probably my 40th race this year and it never gets old!

Thanks!

Yes. We are in the very top row above the regular stands. There are 2 rows up there. We are seats 1 and 2. The view is amazing. Just hate all the idiots who want to come up there during the race and try to stand in my way. I’ve had some unpleasant interactions with some of them. I pay a lot of money for those seats and don’t appreciate people trying to Jack up my view. 😉

I believe this still qualifies as NW Vista... probably around section S. But way, WAY higher than I've ever sat on race day. Normally, one would have to bribe a yellow-shirt to go up there on practice days. It's what I've been telling people: racing is one of the only spectator sports where you actually want to be "far away" from the action... just so you can see more and take it all in. This was a KA vid.

@@jscorp681 somehow my mom came across 2 tickets above the top row, must be the same seats you're talking about. She said she was up there with spotters or race officials. It is an amazing seat in row double R, in the shade with the chain link backrest, I cannot imagine being 10 or 15 feet higher... it's always funny when I take someone new, and recommend and hooded sweatshirt on memorial day weekend. If it isn't 100 degrees you might get chilly up there. God bless IMS and the 500. Roger made some good changes but that same I-beam I hang off of for 3.5 hrs once every year has been the same since 1997. Love it.

@@johnschwindt3049 yes, it’s been quite chilly a few times in the last 3-4 years. Not as cold as 92 but still not ideal. Crazy wearing jeans and long John shirts and heavy sweatshirts in late May! You can really hear the wind in this video. It was ridiculous.

You're right that he's a great performer 😊

Yes it was!

We are at the very top of our section. I think it’s 17? Seats 1 & 2! Yeah, great view but I do love to go down during the race close the the fence just to feel the speed as they rip thru 4. Pretty incredible.

We are in those two extra rows above the main stands. The only drawback is all the assholes that try to come up there during the race and crowd our space. I am constantly having to run them out. Those seats are not cheap!

@@jscorp681 same thing in T3 with snakepit. They can see empty seats so they try to hit them later in the race. Been going since 1973. In stand J for long time been in T3 for 20y now. Won't ever move. Like yours, why mess with perfection. Thanks for info on sections. Damn, that's such a neat view of them diving into T3. They are coming straight at me, so that side angle is great.

Thanks! 👍🏻

I hope to see you there. (I was in S49 last time and I think I'll keep those tickets...you get an up-close view of turns 3 and 4 from there).

It’s amazing! Having lived in Indy my whole life and been to 37 of them, the history, the traditions, the speed,…..there’s nothing like it!

@@jscorp681 I've always known about the Indy 500 but last year I became an actual Indycar fan and watched both last year's and this year's race as well as watching full race replays

I thought that was you!

@@douglasdavis8395 though actually my family was in sector 31 row dd seats 12-16 (if you know the seating arrangement you can spot me about 10-20 times during the indy 500 broadcast

Cool story, bro. Nobody is forcing you to go. If you don’t enjoy it TURN THE CHANNEL. Don’t attend. See how easy that was? So, you posted your stupid comment here just to be a dick? Feel better now? 😉🤟🏻🇺🇸
