Camping at a NASCAR event (LVMS) in March

We've done this with friends since 1992, doing both Michigan Int'l Speedway races each summer as well as a handful of Brickyard 400 races since the mid-90's. We finally cut down to 1 race at Michigan per summer just this year, but we're into our early 60's now. The reason we don't totally drop attending is because we usually have a great time.

At Michigan we have always camped in the infield. This way we can watch practice, time trials, and the races from my buddy's platform on top of his converted 1974 GMC school bus. Sitting in the stands probably gives a better view, but we like our spot and now there's a big Jumbotron nearby so we can watch replays.

We usually take along old one-speeder bicycles. It's a blast riding around checking out the different campsites. Some sites set up their own full-sized bar. There's usually loud music of various kinds. And generators run quite a bit. I've learned to fall asleep with the hum of the generators. It's worth doing at least once in a lifetime if you enjoy racing.

I would do it again In a heartbeat. It was the most fun I ever had with my clothes on. The people were all great and I met a lot of them. It didn't matter where you were from, you were welcome at anybody's site for a drink, hot dog, chile, you name it. Sure it is tight in there and people do party a lot but when I went to bed I didn't hear anything until morning. Just great fun. Macktee

once was a enough never again. party central and every body right on top of you and not respecting your space.

It will be very noisy all night long with generators running 24/7 at ALOT of trailers. It will also be a 24/7 PARTY atmosphere with anything and everything going on... Have fun ...

Not my idea of having a good time but alot of folks really live for those events...
