Drivers going through their pre-race rituals, motor homes and hospitality tents lining the paddock and a lineup that includes some of the stars of the IndyCar Series and Indy Pro Series have become familiar yearly sights to spectators on a beautiful autumn day.
It isn't the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, but according to 2005 Indianapolis 500 and IndyCar Series champion Dan Wheldon the Mazda Robo-Pong 200 presented by Bridgestone at New Castle Motorsports Park is big.
"This event is the Indy 500 of go-karting," said Wheldon, who teamed with Mark Dismore Jr. to win the inaugural event in 2005.
