Miller Lite Carb Day / Firestone Freedom 100

Known for many years as "Carburetion Day," and shortened only in fairly recent years simply to "Carb Day," it refers to the day on which cars qualified for the starting field are given the opportunity to practice in "Race Day trim," as opposed to the less-economical setups required for out-and-out speed during time trials. Although carburetors haven’t been used on Carburetion Day since 1963, there will still be plenty of action and excitement at the Brickyard on May 24.

 

This is a day of racing and rocking.  The day kicks off in the morning with the final practice for IndyCar drivers.  Then, the drivers of the Firestone Indy Lights drop the green flag for the Firestone Indy Lights.  The final on track activity is a competitive but lighthearted pit stop challenge. See which pit crew comes out on top for the prize money!  Finally it's on to the band.  Make your way into the infield to see a huge concert from our 2013 band, which is to be announced soon.
