Two days before the race, Honda invited me on a backstage tour of the event. Like last year, it was awesome.

But unlike last year, this year’s tour included a stop at the security HQ come ON.  I asked so many questions, the tour guide walked away.

This is what keeps the race going,
because no security, no race.

Imagine securing 25,000 people, many of whom are drinking.  And do it all in a way that’s un-obtrusive, so as to not create panic and alarm.

 

For more auto-oriented stuff from the race, here’s the tag – Honda Indy.

I purposefully waited to blog these photos, lest I accidentally reveal something of value.
