Camping at Nascar Races
Steven Godlewski
If you’re a fan of the races, you have probably at least entertained the thought of camping out at the race with other anticipating race fans. There is something about the vibe when camping at a NASCAR race that can’t be beat, especially for those die hard fans out there that are truly thrilled b y it all. Getting NASCAR tickets is one thing, but actually having the opportunity to be on the infield as the race is going on is a one-of-a-kind experience in itself, one that no real race fan should have to live without having experienced.rnnrnnThere are different types of camping that can be done at a NASCAR race. Most people have RVs that they like to camp with because they have the ability to hook them up and be able to use the water, the facilities, and have electricity in the camper. There are also camping sites for NASCAR races that do not offer hook ups at all, although many of these facilities will make other arrangements for you to dispose of your waste and get clean water. Of course, there’s always the option of camping in a tent and that’s often the favorite option amongst those who would prefer do things simply. Whichever method of camping you choose should not be hard to accommodate.rnnrnnWhy Bother Camping at NASCAR Races?rnnrnnMany people who travel to NASCAR don’t see the point in camping, and the truth is that it isn’t for everyone. There are lots of people who make a tradition out of traveling to races like the Coca Cola 600 and the Daytona 500 and camping with a massive group of friends and associates. Then there are people who fly to town and stay in luxury suites; obviously the latter group might not appreciate the experience. There’s a camaraderie to be had at camp sites that goes well with the vibrant NASCAR atmosphere.rnnrnnCamping at NASCAR Is One Huge CelebrationrnnrnnPeople select to camp at NASCAR rather than get a room or stay at a bed and breakfast because of the type of experience it offers. It is a great way for a lot of people who are interested in one thing to get together and celebrate it. There’s often drinking, cookouts, celebrations, games, activitiesyou name it, it is done at a NASCAR campout. It is a good place to bring little ones who you want to like the races with you and instruct them how to have some good, wholesome fun.rnnrnnWhere to Camp at NASCARrnnrnnDepending on what race you’re attending and what track you’ll be at, there are several different places to camp. Some tracks grant camping on the infield only, while some tracks grant camping inside the track and outside it as well. Other places have campsites very close to the track that are designated for camping NASCAR fans as well, so the venue can change accommodations from place to place and race to race. Check with your race in advance so that you can reserve a spot, and let your friends and loved ones know in advance, especially if there’s a distance to be traveled to the race itself.rnnrnnSomething to keep in mind about camping out at NASCAR races is that the more popular the race is and the bigger of a deal the event is, the harder it is going to be to get a space. Sometimes, they require that you reserve a camping space a year in advance or more and that’s a bit too long for some people. A lot of things can change in a year, but usually the cost of reserving the space isn’t too much to ask to have the space reserved when demand for it is going to be so high once the event rolls around.rnnrnnCamping at NASCAR takes organization. It takes planning, and most of all it takes the will to have a good time. There should only be one rule at a NASCAR camping event and it should be that non race fans and celebration poopers are not allowed!rnn
