If you are a NASCAR fan you must attend a live race at least once in your life. There are over thirty NASCAR racetracks to choose from around the U.S. If you have the funds needed to travel then you must plan on attending a race this season.
When trying to determine which NASCAR race you should attend, there are a number of important factors to take into consideration. This will help ensure that your first time attending a NASCAR race is a highly enjoyable experience.
You’ll want to look for a race on the schedule that is close to your home. This will minimize the barrier or having to travel a long way to see the race. Depending on where in the United States you live, chances are excellent that there is a race track within a few hours of your home.
You’ll also want to take the cost of admission into consideration when examining NASCAR races to attend. Since different speedways are owned by different individuals and companies, not all tracks charge the same amount of money for tickets. You’re likely to see a difference in costs for different sections of a racetrack as well.
Date and time are two other factors that should be examined. Most NASCAR races take place on Sundays but you may find some variations. For example, Saturday night races are increasing in popularity and they are highly sought after by fans so plan accordingly.
Don’t wait until the last minute to buy your tickets. If you do wait until the last minute to buy your tickets, you may find limited seats available. Buying your tickets online is the ideal way to ensure you get a good price and the seat location that you want.
Track ratings and reviews should also be taken into consideration. This is important as no two race tracks are the same and many provide those in attendance with different experiences. For example, on a road course, you are likely to see less of the race and action taking place. This is another good reason as to why you should use the Internet to find research the tracks and buy your tickets.
These are just a few of the many factors that you will want to take into consideration before attending your first race. Hopefully this will help you in planning your next (or first) NASCAR race. Good Luck!
