Atlanta motor owners plan trip to Indianapolis race
A large Atlanta party will depart Tuesday night at 6 10 PM over the Southern railway for the Indianapolis speedway race on May 30.

Grandstand seats remain in limited supply with Atlanta securing three reservations and many attendees likely to occupy a box. A May 29 sparring match adds to the trip’s appeal as several riders plan to attend both events.
