Free Day at Indianapolis Speedway

[cosworth151]

The Indianapolis Motor Speedway Hall of Fame Museum is offering the public free admission to the Museum and the narrated track tour Saturday, Dec. 13, the third consecutive year IMS is participating in the popular "12 (Free) Days of (Indy) Christmas."

The event is part of the Indianapolis Convention & Visitors Association holiday promotion, where a group of leading Indianapolis-area attractions offer free admission to the public for one day. The promotion provides easy access to one of the world's premier collections of race cars, classic automobiles, motorsports artwork and artifacts.

You may have seen the pictures of the museum I posted in the Gallery section a year or so ago. Since then, they have added a selection of racing motorcycles. One of Nicky Hayden's 2006 MotoGP World Championship Repsol Honda bikes is in the collection.

The Hall of Fame Museum is open 9 a.m.-5 p.m. (ET) Dec. 13, as it is every day of the year except Christmas Day. For more information, contact the Museum at (317) 492-6784 or visit www.indianapolismotorspeedway.com.
