interactiveAmy’s Indy 500 Adventures

Amy — Tue, 01 Jun 2010 14:45:54 +0000

I am always up for an adventure, so when I was invited to attend the Indy 500 as a guest of Chevrolet I was honored and off to the races over Memorial Day weekend.

As it turns out, this would be my first time at an Indy race, and it was no ordinary adventure! Besides the fact that at 95 degrees it was the hottest Indy 500 in history, I also had a HOT pass, which in addition to media credentials, allowed me Pit & Garage Access on race day, which means all access, baby!

Pace Car & Pit Pass for the Korins!

Within minutes of picking up my credentials, I was wisked away on a golf cart, and taken to meet Good Morning America host Robin Roberts before she hit the track for a few laps in the pace car. Check out the Good Morning America segment of her pace car practice.

Pace Car driver Robin Roberts is race ready after a few warm up laps!

In under 40 hours, I amassed over 675 pictures, rode 130 miles per hour in a pace car around the Indianapolis Motor Speedway,

I was moving 127 mph, of course it's blurry!

watched a parade of 33 race cars get pulled out of their garages and taken down Gasoline Alley,

Here comes Helio's car!

and I stood on the starting grid with Danica Patrick minutes before the green flag dropped!

What a whirlwind weekend, I still want to tell you about how Chevrolet spoiled a lucky group of Camero and Corvette owners, about all of my celebrity sightings and of course about the race (although admittedly, I was learning from the trenches, I mean the Pit!) – and therefore this story will have a few posts throughout the week…

In the meantime, there are more pictures posted on interactiveAmy’s facebook page. Please “like” me so you can see who else is part of this weekend’s funky bunch… (wink, wink / hint, hint!)

Many thanks to Connie Burke, Adam Denison and Patrick Hernandez with General Motors for the incredible invitation and once in a lifetime Indy experience! Chevrolet pulled out all of the stops to make this an amazing weekend, not just for me, but for over 300,000 Indy 500 spectators and race fans all around the world!

Were you watching the race this weekend? Let’s lap it up and rehash all 500 miles of Indy500 fun!
