They do allow Tailgating in the parking lots, prior to the race, which should be in the evening.

This sounds like a good plan
What do you guys who have posted in this thread think of a drive to Chicago and a cruise on Lake Shore Drive and then back out to Joliet to watch women's Demolition night ??
The route plan will work quite well actually.
I like this idea !!!
We should decide rather quickly so we can all individually order our $16.00 general admission tickets before they sell out !!
