Racing is really the number one activity that I do, and I would highly recommend if someone were going to go see a NASCAR event that they go to Bristol, TN.

First track to check out as a fan

Fans love this short track. It’s a coliseum built type with 160,000 people on top of the action. It’s almost like a bowl where the cars race around.

At Bristol or any NASCAR race, you really have to go early and plan on staying. I know a lot of people turn it into a campground situation where they come in for the weekend and hook up a camper or rent one and stay close enough to wander around and watch the practice session and the qualifying -- it’s a build-up to the race. It can be a three day experience if you want it to be.
