I've wanted to go to night racing at Bristol for 30 years. Some day. I think the weed laws are crap, so that's not going to help. Might make it to New Hampshire this summer. The miracle mile.I have been to several nascar races (not Daytona) and a couple trips to Indy 500. The super speedway nascar races at Homestead were boring. Most of the race takes place far away and then there's a rush as the pack goes by. Then it's a wait for the pack to come swooshing by again.
Bristol TN is a short track and the racing is up close and intense. It's a lot more fun and excitement because it's close and the entire track is visible.
I would recommend an Indy car race over nascar any day. The cars are much faster and cooler looking. The maneuvers the drivers can make in an Indy car are incredible. The track at Indy is not entirely visible from most of the seats, but there are plenty of seats that have views of the majority of the track. When I went our seats were at the exit of turn 2. We could see cars coming out of turn 1 through turn 2 and all the way down the straight and into turn 3.
My grandfather (Pappy) lived in Ormond Beach which is very close to Daytona Beach. When the race track first opened in 1959 we made a family trip to visit and Pappy loaded us up in his car and drove us out to the track. Coincidentally Pappy's birthday is tomorrow.
I was more into Bluegrass Festivals and concerts back in the day, @Bababooey . I appreciate the compliment.
