I’ve been going since 2012. I’ve seen some pretty amazing 500’s in my time going, but so happy to hear that you keep coming back every year! Hope 2025 will be the best one yet!
The 500 is magical. Decided to go for the first time several years ago and haven’t missed one since (except this year obviously). I think anybody who calls themselves a Hoosier should go at least once. Catch me between the finish line and the first turn next year!!
I get chills every time as well with the start of the Indy 500. I also get chills no matter what whenever I go to any IndyCar race. And whenever I enter IMS if it’s practice, qualifying, or the race for the Indy 500, even whenever I just go to the track when nothing’s happening, I always get chills. For being my home track, IMS is very special and has a lot of meaning to me. Highly recommend going to the track whenever you can if you haven’t been. If you just go to see the track just to see it or go when there’s cars on track, it’s worth it.
Great race. I was sitting in the paddock area a couple of sections from the start/finish line and after the restart everyone was on their feet watching Pagenaud and Rossi trade places, wow... Lets hope that we are all there this year for, " The Greatest Spectacle in Racing".
Yup! 300,000+ people. Hopefully this year we can see some fans in the stands again for the 500! I went last season to the Harvest GP doubleheaders for IndyCar and they allowed 10,000 fans. So we’ll probably see a pretty good amount of fans this year.
Thanks! I move it around a lot so I can get as much of the field as possible. I know it’s a little overdone, but I’m still working on my camera work a little bit.
drew baum I think that the race is going to happen no matter what, but we just don’t know if it will happen on the scheduled date. But I hope the race happens as well! I’ve gone to every Indy 500 since 2012 and to every Indy GP since it’s inaugural race in 2014 and I don’t want to miss any of them any time soon. But all we can do is hope that the COVID-19 outbreak goes down soon.
KingZaySmitty. 24 It is crazy. At least we’re still having the 500 in it’s normal form, but just in August. It’s the first time that the race will be held in August. Going to be weird for sure when I go there this year.
Update I’m tailgating outside the track for the race tomorrow! I’ve been taking the lawn chair to practice for last 2 weeks. Crowds of 2-300 at final practice Great experience! Not ideal but better than sitting at home!
@@BH28Racing I just couldn't place where it was. I'm usually in turn 1 so I'm a little more familiar with the sights around that side of the track. Thank you though!
I feel bad for the guys at the back of the pack :( Do they think they have a chance at winning? I don't understand how they are able to move to the front when everyone is running the same speed.
@@BH28Racing There's no guessing about it, I don't. That shoulda been clear with the "I don't understand how they are able to move to the front when everyone is running the same speed." part.
@@applejacks971 The drivers have to stay in the slipstream of the car in front of them to stay right behind them so they don’t massively fall back from the pack. Once a driver gets enough momentum out of a corner, they try to make a pass on the car in front of them for position. That’s how a driver can get from the back/mid-pack to the front.
@@wales2k4747 it's nowhere near as prestigious as F1 lol The Indy 500 is American only whilst F1 is worldwide and it's not the oldest, the oldest motor sport race is The Paris-Bordeaux which took place in 1885.... And also the Isle Of Man TT is even older than The Indy 500 which started in 1907....
@@BH28Racing I don't know how old you are, are how much of a motorsports fan you are, but modern IndyCars sound like crap. You can barely hear them. They'll never sound like they did in the glory days of the 70s. 12,000 rpms with turbos muting the sound, just not thrilling. If you want to hear some "pure sound" videos, check out 19Bozzy92's RUclips channel, although a RUclips video obviously doesn't do any justice. Screaming 20,000 rpm F1 cars, etc.,etc. As far as in person, today's IndyCars sound is just bland. Even the 2.65 liter V8s of the last true Champ Cars were much better. If you want Pure Sound, check out the thundering 11,000 hp Nitro dragsters, or attend an IMSA sports car event. The screaming Porche GT cars, or the thundering Cadillac DPIs, so many more options. Not saying anything is wrong with IndyCars, mind you, I still attend the events, but the sound just isn't there.
@@markpatterson7828 I’m 18 and I’m a pretty big motorsports fan and I do know IndyCar’s don’t have the best engine sound, but I honestly like it. I like it better than any other motorsports engine personally. Mainly because I’ve been around IndyCar my whole life with my grandpa working for Andretti Autosport for multiple years and now working for Dallara. I grew up with the IR-05’s and that sound is nostalgia for me, but I personally do like the DW12 sound. I honestly like any engine sound from any motorsport, but IndyCar is my favorite. And I put pure sound in the title because it’s the legit pure sound of the cars and the crowd. With the new engines coming in 2023, you might hate it more. Because IndyCar is switching is hybrid technology in 2023 so it’s probably going to be quieter and sound even more muted than it already is.

There is simply NO moment in sports like the start of the Indianapolis 500. Let's hope in 2021 the brickyard is filled with fans .......
Yup I’m going to have to attend the 500 one day.
Definitely!
Do it !
Wait until it’s back at full capacity to get that whole effect!
you won’t regret it.
I just got back from the 500 for the first time and it was exhilarating. Much more exciting and blood pumping than on tv. Go next year.
That was the first year I’ve ever witnessed something so amazing that I come back every year

That’s where my and my girlfriend are sitting. Right at the end of a stand close to the track
Just a few days!!! Can’t wait!

I stay 0.8 miles from the track its a blast every year..
I’m still waiting for the year when Mario doesn’t pull the 2 seater off 😂
So many people!! Definately going once big crowds are allowed again

what does energy drink and light beer equal ... a race fan
Good one!
Espectacular impresionante de locos
Gracias Exitos
Grreeaattt, or if better put, vrrrroooooommmm.
advice....don't move the video camera back and forth so much...otherwise great job of capturing the iconic sound.

thank ims team
In characters what does it looks like in them in cartoons and movies just like a group of people.
What exactly do you mean?
I see people standing in the front by the handrails. They they let anyone do that?
Yeah. You can stand at the bottom of the grandstands if you want. But I personally wouldn’t stand there for more than 10-20 minutes.
I was right in front of the start line
@The Legends no 🧢
5:58 is the best one 😂
Haha, nothing funny happened there.
Is this the back straightaway? I can’t tell.
It’s the North end of the track which is in the middle of turns 3 and 4. And how can’t you tell? Just curious.
@@BH28Racing I just couldn't place where it was. I'm usually in turn 1 so I'm a little more familiar with the sights around that side of the track. Thank you though!
@@BH28Racing I just watched it again. I see now where it is. I must've missed the Pagoda when I watched it the first time.
Another way to tell.....
Downtown Indy is on the left side of the screen. The Speedway is west north west of downtown.

Sit in Penthouse B nothing better.
Penthouse B or E is the dream one day for the 500. But this is what I currently have. Better to watch the Indy 500 in any way instead of nothing.
He willl lead the 1st and the last
Go turbo
Pagenaud fist
Sound like 4 cylinders lol
They’re actually 2.2 L V6’s.
Incredible that people sit in these awful seats instead of e stand.
