Brickyard 400, 2026

John, Murph, Bill, Karen

Back in Indiana, I met with my brother, John, and his great friends, Bill & Karen Cole.  We enjoyed a nice meal together at the Big Woods restaurant in Speedway.  The Coles were in town for the Brickyard 400 at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway where I work part-time as a Safety Patrol member or "Yellowshirt."

My first day working at the track, my post was outside
the dirt track where the BC39 race was held.
That's the race on the big screen.
Just outside the dirt track and the BC39.

The lead up race to the Brickyard
is the Pennzoil 250.


The big NASCAR race at IMS is
the Brickyard 400.

In Danville, IN I meet with friends at the nostalgic
"Mayberry Cafe."  This antique police car sits out front.
