Last year was the first year I went and it was awesome. Here is what I remember......

Horse arena dirt, packs awesome with all the extra fertilizer.....
Biggest track I have ever ran on, indoor or outdoor. Almost needed binocs to see the back stretch. Really wide lanes, big air, and technical sections.
Drivers stand is the second level of the arena, and with the size of the track it was nothing to have 20 cars at a time going
Heated pits in the skyboxes away from the noise and fumes
Concession stand sold beer

I have pics I can post tonight when I get home. I can't wait to do it again.

Come on Dude, let's have some dates......

Sounds like a race I have only seen in my dreams lol. From the pictures and videos I have seen it looks amazing. I have wanted to go the last couple years and got the OK for this year (the wife has realized she gets to travel if I do races out of state lol)

Just need the dates to put in at work.

Some people do camp in there motorhomes and trailers but I would say that a hotel is a safer bet with road conditions in the winter.

I decided that would be the best way to go I honestly did not feel like towing 6 hours each way anyways with questionable road conditions
