Prepare for a Traffic Nightmare

US 41/I-70 in Terre Haute is a nightmare. Plan ahead and leave early to get in/out of the fairgrounds. It's all screwed up, can't turn left here, three down to two lanes there etc. It's bad now, wait til the event. Here's a article in the paper about it: http://www.tribstar.com/local/x86425...ce=twitterfeed

I was up there a few weeks ago for the PPL pull and it was a mess. It will be a cluster for sure.

Last year we went out for breakfast and visited friends at ISU and getting back into the fairgrounds was a nightmare, I felt like I let the clutch in and out a couple hundred times before ever we got back in...

This is why I get there early and camp on the grounds... Traffic has been a nightmare out there the past 2-3 years.

I was out there a few weeks ago and normal Saturday traffic was very congested without any events going on.
