Race fans if you have never been to this track it is a must perfect seating great for those who are wheelchair bound. Seats are elevated so when fans stand to see what is happening on the back side of track your view is not obstructed
I received a gift certificate for Christmas from my wife and kids and grandkids. We arrived early and were directed where to go and signs we posted pointing you where to go. Everyone was very professional and courteous.There was a delay getting started because of weather.They had to finish some rides and drives from the day before but they handled this very well. Very great experience.
I've hit this track twice now. Traffic has never been a problem for me. The workers are Kentucky friendly, the food prices are a little high for what you get, but better than ball park prices. Parking is simple, and the campgrounds are well kept. Note: don't buy gas locally on race weekends. They jack up the price by 5-10%. Plenty of other options down the road of few miles.
The wow is here every moment and every turn. Hold on to your hat and heart. The sound is amazing so pick your favorite driver and go team go. Great time all around
You get to drive REAL NASCAR, race cars used by teams and races. They are Seriously fast. It's best to go with friends and have a little competition for bragging rights on the fastest laps.
went and saw the nationwide race, my first time at this track. AWESOME! almost as loud as sprint cars. the staff was friendly and inviting. my 9yr old daughter had fun too!
I purchased a NASCAR Driving Experience for my husband through Groupon. His day consisted of a 45 minute class on the do's and don't of driving an actual race car. (He drove one of Jeff Gordan's ACTUAL race cars.) More track side instructions- NASCAR works hard to keep everyone safe. He was given a fire suit, ear buds, and a helmet. As he drove his way around the track (there was no one but him in the car) a spotter helped him safely around the track, He reached speeds of over 170mph. Lets just say he was shaking and grinning ear to ear when he got out of the car.I highly recommend you consider doing this. Hubby already planning his next trip.Side note: for those who go but just to watch be sure to bring something non-alcoholic to drink. There is little to no food or drink options. I read my Kindle while I waited for my husband to get on the track. TAKE YOUR CAMERAS!!
Wife and I went to the last race, this was the second time as we went to the inagrual Sprint Cup race. Once again we were very dissapointed. We thought it would have gotten better with a couple years under thier belt. As for traffic didn't affect us so nor worries there as we camped just north (4 miles) in Indiana, great campground. We had VIP tickets and enjoyed the experience down in pit's and our seats where great. The problem is the concessions within the race. They ran out of food before the race even started, coolers not authorized so waiting for expensive drinks (water $6.00, Beer $8.00) etc was tragic, heck you missed half the race waiting in line. We won't be back, we enjoy NASCAR and find other venues, although a greater distance, more geered towards it's customers and better prepared for race day. Sad as it's a great track. Next race for us is a true NASCAR Venue DEGA.....Send people there or Charlotte to learn how to put on a race Kentucky!
Took my Girlfriend here for her first racing experience ever, she later admitted she was not really sure what to expect.She is hooked, Kentucky Speedway is a fan's race track, no seat is a bad seat, the area around the track makes it very easy to get to and from the track even if you decide to walk the entire way.Getting in and out of the parking area was the easiest I have ever experienced.There is plenty of camping parking which one day I look forward to using but in the meantime driving in and out is just as good.
I attended the Rusty Wallace Racing Experience. I don't know if I can ever express how awesome it was. I highly recommend it to anyone who ever has the chance to do it. Kentucky Speedway is an awesome track and all of people with Rusty Wallace Racing were a pleasure to deal with. I say we will definitely be back again!!!!!!
