Speedway General Manager Dan Robinson often hears the same comment.
"People will say, 'I'd sure like to watch a race from the suites sometime. I wish they weren't all sold out,' " Robinson said. "They're often surprised when I tell them that they're not always sold out.
The 20 suites at Lucas Oil Speedway offer indoor and outdoor seating, a television, full food and bar service and air-conditioned comfort.
"A limited number of suites are available for most events throughout the 2017 season," Robinson added. "And if anyone has always wanted to try out the suite experience, we would encourage them to do so."
Suites at Lucas Oil Speedway are in various sizes on the second and third levels of the main grandstand. They seat 14, 18, 27 or 36 guests and all include cable television, indoor seating with air conditioning, outdoor seating, a complimentary tray of food and two free six packs of Coca-Cola products or adult beverages.
Admissions director Nichole McMillan said suites come with collector tickets for admission, a suite hostess to assist with any needs such as concessions or gift shop purchases.
"Suites can be purchased per event or as an annual," McMillan said. "Prices, of course, vary depending on the size of the suite and the event we are hosting. But they're a great way to spend a birthday anniversary, company event or special occasion."
McMillan said the 36-person suite is great for company picnics. It comes with a deck. Buffet and suite bar arrangements can be arranged.
Suites remain available for most Big Adventure RV Weekly Racing Series events and some of the special events throughout the season.
