Indiana Splashes Big Bucks at D.C. Race | Indianapolis News

Indiana’s pouring serious cash into the nation’s biggest motorsport spectacle yet — the Freedom 250 Grand Prix on the National Mall, August 22-23, where IndyCar speeds past monuments on a 1.7-mile street circuit. The state’s Economic Development Corp. snagged a $250K “Monument Suite” for both days, complete with tickets, food, drinks — and extra passes for $5K apiece. Officials tout it as a bold move to cement Indiana’s legacy as the heart of auto innovation and racing, especially with big names like Roger Penske and top drivers already rallying behind the event. This isn’t just a race — it’s a patriotic, high-octane spectacle right in the nation’s capital. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
