Sport sights in Indianapolis

  1. A

    Indianapolis Motor Speedway

    The Indianapolis Motor Speedway, home of the Indianapolis 500 motor race, is Indy's supersight. Tickets (www.imstix.com; around US$20-140) are hard to come by for the big event, held on Memorial Day weekend and attended by 450,000 crazed fans. Tickets for pre-race trials and practices are more likely (and cheaper). Other races at the Speedway are the MotoGP World Championship in September and NASCAR Brickyard 400 in late July.

  2. B

    NCAA Hall of Champions

    The NCAA Hall of Champions reveals the country's fascination with college sports. The NCAA renovated the museum recently, making it much more interactive, so you can now shoot free throws or climb onto a swimming platform à la Michael Phelps. You'll probably find most Hoosiers hovering around the basketball exhibits, as locals are renowned hoop-ball fanatics.
