The Indy Racing Experience has announced its 2010 schedule for the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, with nine dates scheduled for the historic Brickyard, including four days during the Month of May. This year's schedule will begin Thursday, May 6 and end Saturday, Sept. 18 - one of three consecutive weekend dates that will conclude the 2010 schedule.
During each of the 2010 dates at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, the Indy Racing Experience will offer the opportunity to ride, drive, or participate in the Ultimate Indy Racing Experience promotion, which was unveiled late last year. The Ultimate Indy Racing Experience allows the customer to first drive three laps around the famed 2.5-mile oval and then sit back and enjoy a high-speed, two-seater ride that averages 180 mph.
The Indy Racing Experience ride and drive programs at Indianapolis will each cost $499 for the 2010 season, while the Ultimate Indy Racing Experience is $599.
