I just checked mine and it says "processing"-Has any one heard of when we will receive them?  I have also looked for a decent seating chart and haven't had any luck-

Indy gives priority to previous customers. I guess those 8 years going to the F1 race has paid off.

So in other words if it says:

2008 Red Bull Indianapolis GP
Account Summary


   
Status:  PROCESSED
Description:  SEASON PASS 
Sec / Box Row Tickets Qty   
                             3   
             
Status:  PROCESSED

There's no ticket info and my CC wasn't hit probably means that I didn't get any tickets, right?

Probably. Mine gave me Section/Box #, seat # ....but cc had still not been processed. I'll check that later today.

Tried finding camping confirmation but nothing yet. That may still be being processed.

Well, I did apply for general admission so it would make sense that there wouldn't be a seat or box number so perhaps there's hope yet.  No camping info either.

Mine gives a section and seat number but still states "processing" no creditcard activity yet-just patiently waiting

My seats are in the SW vista.

I have previously camped at Indy so that may be why I have my camping info already. I picked the lot that I wanted to be in and received 2 spots in that lot.

In the Processing stage as well, it does state section and number of tickets.  Seems like I got my first pick on the tickets as well.  Nothing on camping but I put in for an RV spot, not sure how that works.

As far as camping, they will list the lot and type of spot.

I got my tickets, corner 7 terrace  :biggrin:.
But it don't say anything about my camping pass I ordered :wtf:

Only processed the tickets for $207. Is camping not being awarded yet? has anyone got their camping pass?
Title: Re: MotoGP at Indy

I have, but I am a previous customer for both tickets and camping. I even got the spots in the lot I requested. Smite away.

This is based on my experience camping at IMS for the F1 races.

Note - all camping is dry camping - no hookups.
All services are by outside vendors. You will get a brochure explaining the services a few weeks before the race.
They have shower facilities that are set up for the weekend - that is these are not permanent facilities. Do not recall the cost.
RV tanks can be drained, call the provided number, a truck shows up to drain tanks. ISTR it being about $20/per call.
RV water - you can purchase bulk water to fill your tank. It is listed as not potable water - it is done for insurance reasons - they do not know the condition of your tank - the water is Indianapolis drinking water.
Ice - you can have ice delivered - there are other ice vendors - it will not be as cheap as the local store.
There is some food delivery available - mostly pizza. Can call local places and see if they will deliver. There are many vendors along Georgetown.

I called the ticket office today and confirmed I have three general admission tickets.  WHOO HOOO....  :thumb:

They have not yet assigned all the camping at this time and expect to do so in the next few weeks.  Then we should see a charge on our CC.

We've been assigned South Vista 1-5 and they actually called Stumpy to see if P3 is ok with him for our RV camping!  Ummmm--yeaahhhh.  I was getting nervous that we wouldn't get RV space as we put in our request later.  No charges yet, but it's showing on our Indy account. 

Less than a year!! Yay!!!   :cheers:

YEAH, looks like all tickets are assigned and they are just working on trying to get camping spots assigned based on what you need and what would put you closest to your seats.

Not sure about anyone else from the MidWest area, but I am already excited about this event.

Thanks for the additional information on the camping, Brian.  I called Indy and cancelled my camping reservation and picked up two motorcycle parking permits.  There are a couple of campgrounds close to the track with full amenities with swimming, fishing, golf, etc.  We will be staying an extra day or two there to make it a more enjoyable vaction.

We'll take the street bikes along and drive to the track (it's about 25 miles).

I'm such a procrastinator.  I gotta get off my butt.  By the time I sign up I'll be listening by radio from the parking lot in one of the RV's!!  :banghead:
