For what to eat, get a tenderloin sandwich anywhere but food trucks in or outsidse the track and Mug-n-Bun. Those are trash. Pro tenderloin can be found here: https://www.yelp.com/biz/broadway-diner-fortville Full Collapse fucked around with this message at 20:44 on Apr 20, 2017 |

The track-run foodstands do make a mean tenderloin, though.

Dear Long Beach, let me save you some money: Don't bring in F1.

The reason why I haven't been back is I went there a few years ago around the Indy GP. Parking lot and dining area were about 2/3 full, so not a bad crowd and not overbearing for the staff. I was sitting with my now-wife-then-girlfriend outside sharing a table with a family of four and another family of four across the dining area seated after our table got their drinks before any of us did. I asked the server when we would get our drinks and she said in a panicked voice, "oh, we serve bigger groups first because it's easier." All six of us were amazed at that excuse. We got our drinks and our food came in to-go bags at the same time even though we didn't ask for take out--felt like the staff wanted us to go away. poo poo service and bad excuses are why Mug-n-Bun is poop.

Norns posted:I'm so stoked for Nando to be racing in the 500 I'm getting tickets. I think having a seat in the grandstand is probably a better way to go. Somebody posted this earlier: Synthetic Hermit posted:I sat in Upper H Stand, Sec 22, Row Z last year, and was quite happy. It was too far away to see the pole, but the view of turn 4 and the pit entrance was excellent. I just did a search for Upper H Stand, and came up with Sec 24, Row Y (approximate view - the fence is closer in reality), which is even further from the pole, but would compensate with a better view of the turn 4 entrance.

WindyMan posted:Dear Long Beach, let me save you some money: Don't bring in F1. Don't they rattle this around every goddamn time the contract is almost up? On IMS seating: The only seats I've ever had that I didn't love were up way high, about midway between the exit of 4 and the start/finish line. There wasn't really a good view of either the exit of 4 or the entry to 1 so you didn't get to see that much actual track action. Good view of the pits, though. The second "worst" was up high in the 1-2 short chute, only because there is absolutely zero cover and it was one of the hottest 500s I've ever been to. It's not Arizona, but you're still going to be in that seat for a long time - shaded seats are by far the best. My ideal seat is as close to the entry of 1 as possible. In the lower grandstands, up as high as you can get before the upper deck obstructs your view. Best seats are probably the E Penthouse, but good luck ever getting your hands on those tickets for raceday. I managed to get into those for the Freedom 100 one year: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wp1klmtsWQA

IOwnCalculus posted:Don't they rattle this around every goddamn time the contract is almost up? Yeah, Chris Pook constantly tries to get the city to cough up $150m+ of public funds to him to run an F1 race. He's essentially angling for the sports arena cashgrab model.

Long Beach is probably one of the only ICS tracks that F1 could run at without ruining, but it's still a dumb idea.

Backstretch needs to be 2 miles longer and needs more awkwardly flowing corners.

The rights to E Penthouse (and to a lesser extent, the vista decks) tickets are passed down within families. You have almost no chance of getting them without working your way into the will of someone who already has them. Theris fucked around with this message at 02:51 on Apr 21, 2017 |

I'm pretty sure the current wide F1 cars wouldn't fit round the LB hairpin.
