I am planning to go up on Sunday only. Have my niece’s b-day party on Saturday in Rochester, so I think I’ll go straight from there on Sunday, unless things get juggled around.

I’m debating going to the INDY race in two weeks at the Glen. I know its a royal pain in the ass trying to get in and out of that place on that 1 lane road. Anyone been for big races give me an idea of how much time I’m looking at sitting in traffic, etc. Thanks.

I was at the Bud @ the Glen in '91. We didn’t even try to leave right away. We just kinda hung out and chilled for like 2 hrs after so the line wasn’t as long. You’re looking at a good amount of time.

ive been to the glen 4 times in the past 3 years. for the bud/nextel and all the rolex races. getting out after the race is easy. they close the whole road and make it 3 lanes wide heading back to the highway.

If you are going to the track you will sit in traffic. Because this is the IRLs first event at the Glen, and the first sanctioned non-vintage open wheel event since forever, there will be a decent crowd. Maybe not as big as NASCAR weekend, but possibly comparable.

Going to see the event live is worth sitting in traffic. **There is no way to calculate how much time you will spend sitting in traffic.** Usually when exiting the track they open up the other access points besides the main gate to help alleviate traffic.

I think they’re actually expecting pretty much equivalent to nascar

I was at infineon raceway few weeks ago to check out the indy race. I was quite disapointed. NOt much action. Kinda like nascar but with cooler looking cars.
