NASCAR at Indianapolis

It was the first time I saw the famed Brickyard in person and it was quite a thrill. The racing heritage that has crossed the hallowed bricks over the past one hundred and six years is astounding. Think about it this way, in 1909 (the year the track opened) Teddy Roosevelt was president and no World Wars had been fought. The first race at the track was in hot air balloons. A few months later motorcycles and then automobiles took to the track. NASCAR first visited the venue in 1994 with Jeff Gordon winning the event. Please check out some of my favorite pictures from the weekend: Indy 2015
