Rental cars on the flats - what's the deal?

[Freud]

I will not.

So I'm a little confused (nothing new  )...
Is there a fee per person or per car to get onto the salt as a spectator to watch the races?  If so what is it?
It was my understanding spectators could walk the pits.  But is a pit pass necessary?   
What is the BNI pass for - to get onto the salt, get into the pits or...?   

Thanks.

There is a fee. The pit pass and the gate fee are the same thing.  Each person needs to buy a pit pass. I think they are $10 a day or $40 for the week and you get a nice pin. You may walk all around the pits with your pit pass. You may not drive around in the pits. It's bad enough with racers and race cars. And then there are the bike guys. It's really easy to understand what's going on when you get there.

At the end of the road you will need to buy a $40 pit pass-badge for your wife when you get there.  Good for the week. Landsendlynda, your GATE GODDESS  should have maps of where you can drive and park as a spectator. You can walk about any where you want, pits, starting line, staging line, impound etc. You will be allowed to drive between down course, pit, lunch wagon, and starting line spectator parking as it's miles between them. Just ask anyone questions.

Get it right guys, it's the Nabershnackel Chore!!!
and......

The BNI membership card means NOTHING to me and my crew!!!  The pin, on the other hand,  does!!! 

Pit Passes        Adults $40 (good for the week)
                         Kids $20    ( ages 13-17)  ((18 is adult ))

Day Passes       Adults $15 (good for that day only)
                          Kids $10   (ages 13-17)

Children 12 and under are FREE   (So are pet critters!!)

I think most folks here know the name of the World Land Rental-Car-In-Reverse Speed Record holder. His 57 mph mark proved forever the fact a Ford Taurus in "R" at full throttle for five miles does not like having the radiator in the BACK.

I believe it's the same guy who taught Freud the ONLY way to wash a rental after a week on the salt.

I thought his suggestion of powerwashing the salt into the carpets was outstanding... it disappears instantly    The salt on the pedals is usually the give away...  while you have the wand in there, don't forget them 

[Stan Back]

The good doctor explained to me that the best driving tip is to jam your knees against the steering wheel and make only very minor corrections.  Makes sense, but still scares me.

[Freud]

The carpet washing procedure was developed by the Amish in St Louis.

The principle was adopted in Wendover.
