The Indy 500 gets all the glory, but real motorsports fans know: the Sonsio Grand Prix weekend at Indianapolis Motor Speedway is something special in its own right.

May 8-9, 2026. INDYCAR Series. The Brickyard. A tighter, more intimate crowd than the 500 — which means better access, better atmosphere, and a race weekend that doesn't require you to navigate 300,000 people just to get a hot dog.

If you're making the trip from Fort Wayne or anywhere in our service area, we've got your home base covered.

RV Camping at IMS — What You Need to Know

Indianapolis Motor Speedway has infield and perimeter camping options that put you right in the middle of the race atmosphere. The catch — and it's an important one — is that IMS camping has no shore power. No electrical hookups at all.

That means you need a generator. It's not optional if you want AC, refrigeration, lights, or any appliances.

We've got you covered. Our generator add-on is available for $40/day and it handles everything you need to run the RV comfortably. We'll make sure it's fueled and ready when we deliver.

What We Deliver

Our 2025 Jayco Jayflight SLX 260BH fits the IMS camping areas well. Here's what comes with your delivery:

  • RV delivered and set up at your IMS camping spot before you arrive
  • Generator (add-on, $40/day) — fully fueled
  • Full kitchen stocked with dishes, cookware, and basics
  • Bedding and linens for all sleeping areas (sleeps up to 9)
  • Outdoor chairs and mat for your race-day setup
  • Pickup after the event

You pull in, pop a beer, and your IMS weekend is officially underway.

Why the Sonsio Grand Prix Is Worth Your Time

The INDYCAR Series doesn't get enough love from casual motorsports fans who fixate on the 500. But the Sonsio Grand Prix is a full NTT INDYCAR Series points race run on the IMS road course — a challenging technical circuit that runs through the infield and uses the famous main straightaway.

Road course racing is a completely different animal than the oval. You'll see braking zones, trail braking, chicanes, elevation changes. The cars look different going through corners. And the smaller crowd means you can actually move around the facility and find great vantage points throughout the day.

Two days of racing. Practice, qualifying, race day. If you're a motorsports fan, this is a serious weekend.

The Fort Wayne Advantage

Indianapolis is about 130 miles from Fort Wayne — an easy two-hour drive. We can deliver your RV to the speedway before you leave, so when you arrive, your home base is already waiting.

At the end of the race weekend, you pack up and drive home. We handle the rest.

Book early — our calendar fills quickly for IMS weekends. The Sonsio Grand Prix is May 8-9, 2026.
