1. Lucas Oil Raceway
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 39 reviews
Lucas Oil Raceway is home to the most historic drag strip in the world, a fan-favorite short track paved oval, and a 2.5 mile road course. Each year, the US Nationals (currently the Chevrolet Performance U.S. Nationals) comes to Lucas Oil Raceway over Labor Day weekend. This event is the largest drag race in the world which will see more than 100,000 guests and close to 1,000 competitors. Ticket prices vary by day and seating location. The US Nationals is truly a sensory overload when the Top Fuel Dragsters and Nitro Funny Cars reach speeds of over 320 MPH in only 1000 feet of track. Wear ear protection and sun screen since the cars are loud and the sun is hot! Throughout the rest of the year, the track features a amateur race night most Wednesdays where anyone can race their own car down the drag strip, called Wild Wednesday. The track will also feature the ARCA Racing Series, CRA Series, USAC, Mazda Road to Indy (Pro Mazda/USF2000), Summit ET Bracket Series Division 3 Finals, Lucas Oil Drag Racing Series, NMCA (National Muscle Car Association), Hot Rod Drag week, and more! Visit our website for all event information.

I can't believe we live so close and have never been to this park until today. It is beautiful. Our walk along the snow covered trails was perfect on this sunny March afternoon. Lots of animal prints and many birds to see. Woodpeckers are so active right now. The maple trees are filling buckets with maple sap and it is truly a beautiful place. I can't wait to visit at other times during the year to see all of the changes. So, get out of the house and go fora visit. You will be glad that you did.

I love this orchard, I start going as soon as they open and keep going till weather is cold. They always have the best produce, fresh garden veggies. Wonderful apples and a great concession stand. In September they have hayrides, play things for the kids and the fun goes on till October. The owners and everyone who works there are so friendly. A great place to take your family

For a simple park, this one has some things going for it, playgrounds, basketball, nice paved trail, creek to throw rocks in, lots of space of you just want to chill out. Great for many things. Its pretty well maintained and occupied so it doesn't feel like a deserted dump like how most parks turn out

We've ridden horses during an hour-long guided tour twice now at this place & each time we had a blast! The horses are very well trained and the young female guide was sweet, patient and experienced. Trail was even, quiet, shady. Friendly people. Real farm setting. Highly recommended for all ages!

Reviewed By fdwt994 - Indianapolis, Indiana
Every square inch is crammed with inflatables and arcade games, which is the point, right? However, it's a little uncomfortable for parents watching their kids as the seating area has old, hard chairs and it's cramped. Some of the inflatables could use some cleaning also. The kids had fun.

Finally! I can go to a late afternoon or evening movie and have a diet decaffeinated drink! Also, love that the seat arms raise for easier hand holding. Great leg room too. Definitely our favorite theater!
