Indy 500 race tickets are 3" wide by 8" tall.

TICKET HOLDERS are 4" wide by 8" tall.

They are clear plastic and have a hole to attach a
lanyard.

Many people use them on race day to hang their tickets
around their necks.  

Instead of digging through your pockets or bags, your
tickets are easily accessible for showing the gate and
stand attendants, and referencing your row and seat
number once you reach your stand.

They leave your hands free to carry other stuff and
protects your souvenir tickets from damage or loss.
SPOTTER GUIDES are used to identify race cars on the track.

They often include lots of information, but they all include a picture of every car.

They are extremely useful when you watch the Indy 500.

Even if you follow IndyCar religiously and think you recognize all the liveries, many
teams use special liveries for the 500.  In addition, there are eight one-off drivers.

If you are lucky enough to view the scoring pylon, all the drivers are referred to by
their car number. Spotter Guides include those too.
Ticket Holder and Lanyard
Traditional spotter guides are big and have to be folded up and put away all the time.
I made these to fit in a ticket holder that hangs around your neck.
Shows all 33 cars on one side.
It measures 3.75" x 6.25"
The size of the cars are smaller
than the other two options.
This measures 3.5" x 10.5"
and is folded to fit in holder.
This measures 7.5" x 7"
The cars are the same size as option 2,
and gets folded too.  You just hold it
horizontally instead of vertically.
OPTION 1
OPTION 2
OPTION 3
If you have access to a color printer, you can print as many of them as you need.
Save the pdf files to your computer.  Open them with Adobe Acrobat.
Print them on a regular sheet of paper.  Normal portrait orientation is fine.
Cut it out along the border with scissors.
It should fit in a 4" x 8" ticket holder.
Note: If using a vertical guide, insert it upside down.  This way it will be right side up
when you flip it up to look down at it as it hangs around your neck.
