I like this race track. I just wish it wasn't so far from where I live. They have 3 entrances which…read moreis grandstands, tier parking and pits. Signs guide you to where you want to go. The first entrance is the grandstands. The second entrance is tier parking. The third entrance is the pits entrance. I review race tracks on 4 different categories: parking, concession stand, bathroom facilities and view of track. I chose tier parking which you can use your pickup truck to watch the race. I like this in the fact that you can back up your truck and pull the tail gate down, sit and watch the race. I brought my lawn chair and placed it in the back of the truck to watch the race in comfort. One important note is that if you want to park in this section, get here early because it fills up early. I saw some trucks pay and couldn't find a parking place. They have concessions stands in the grandstands, tier parking and the pits. So, it does not matter where you want to go, you can get food and drinks nearby. They have nachos and cheese, hamburgers, cokes, hot dogs, candy, cheeseburgers, hot chocolate, sweet tea, coffee, pop corn and etc. There's usually no lines at the concession stand or not much of one. They have bathroom facilities with running water, paper towels and soap to wash your hands. They have garbage cans throughout the track grounds for your garbage. I saw no lines in the bathrooms. My view of the track was great as I was able to see the race cars all around the track. There was nothing blocking my view of seeing the race cars drive around the oval dirt track. Parking and leaving: There was no problem parking as it is self parking from what I saw. There was no traffic problems leaving either It seems they have big races here and they don't race every weekend. Like them on Facebook to view their schedule. The first time I came here they had the All Star Series here in which the number 157 Mike Marlar won the race. The second time I came here they had the World of Outlaws racing series here in which Scott Bloomquist won the race. They will also have the Lucas Oil Series here in a few weeks visiting. The third time I came this year Donald McIntosh won the Ultimate Super Late Model series race. I went to the pits and talked to Ray Cook's pit crew member who said they had a brand new race car that has never hit the track and they been working on it several weeks. Sadly, it was totaled in this race on 6/18/2016. What I don't like about this race track is that they don't water the track down enough. Therefore, it is extremely dusty that I can't stand it. I can't enjoy the race with all the dust getting in my eyes, all over my truck, all over my clothes and in my chair. Oh, yes, breathing in the dust makes it almost not enjoyable at all. They just need to use more water in wetting the track down and I bet a lot more race fans will show up. It's a shame that they have all these big races here but you can't enjoy the races with all the dust.

You can also bring your lawn chairs too for comfortable seating. They do have concessions stands with very reasonable prices. A hot dog and coke was $4. However, I saw some items as low as a dollar. I would say every seat in here is a good seat with a great view of the race track. I sat down in the lower stands and could see the whole race track. They have late model racing of course. The winner for tonight's race was Ross White. One unusual race car I saw here was the Classic race car. I have never seen the cars race. They put on a good show. I have to say it was an entertaining night for me.

Such a cool place!…read more I visited the Michelin Raceway recently as my cousin was set to race in the MotoAmerica Superbike Speedfest competition. Prior to the invitation to be a spectator, I didn't even know that this place existed but why would I? I'm not a super fan of bikes or racing, I barely like to drive, but I am definitely in the minority as this place was PACKED. I always forget how big and devoted the racing community is. Totally makes sense that the track would need to be in the boonies because they need all of that land that they have, and more! When we arrived, I was incredibly impressed with how organized and official it all was. When you pull in, there are a number of attendants in booths that check your ticket and parking, welcoming you in with your wristband and any other items needed for the event. We then passed another access point with an employee who waved us through. What I wasn't expecting was the insane parking and navigating through the area. Again, there were hundredssss of people there with bikes, trucks, RVs, etc. etc. My sister and I searched for parking but even with help, we still had no clue where the best place to park was. Although we had some sort of special paid parking that we covered in advance, there wasn't any blatant signage that helped us find where we should go. As I was 2 months postpartum upon our visit, the idea of parking back in the woods and walking 2 miles to find our family sounded terrible. At some point I threw caution to the wind and parked in one of the grassy lots that I believe belonged to participants, but I was willing to take the risk, lol. The section where all of the participants and their teams dwell was such a busy area but still well-organized enough that it didn't seem congested. We stood in a grassy area behind the fencing and were able to see the bikers up close and personal as they bended the corner, a high-anxiety moment filled with lots of excitement! Beyond the race itself, there were over a dozen vendors serving up pizzas, sweet treats, beer, liquor and more in the main common area. Along with the bites and bevvies, there was a small carnival-esque area with rides for the kids (and kids at heart) to burn some energy. As this was a family-friendly, 3-day experience, I thought that was such a cool addition. What I noticed most as we walked the grounds was that it was incredibly clean out there! With so many people in town for a multi day event, I'm incredibly impressed that they even had the streets tidy. Although I'm not a racing enthusiast, I really enjoyed my time with my family out here. Beautifully laid out, clean and full of thrills, totally worth the drive from ATL!

Although I'm not a racer, Atlanta Dragway also seems like a great place to run your car - plenty of space for trailers, the track and track management seem good. There's not much in the way of food vendors. One walk-up cafe was open with standard, over-priced food. Except for it being a long haul from civilization, a food truck vendor could do well here. Restrooms are clean enough. Parking is orderly field parking (i.e., find a place to park in the grass/dirt lots). Perhaps it's not this way for NHRA events but for the NMRA/NMCA event I attended, there was a lack of direction for the spectators coming in. It's as if they just sell you a ticket and figure their responsibility ends there. I waited in line driving in only to find out when I got near the front that the lane I was in wasn't for spectators. No signs or people to point the way until too late. When I drove out I figured to take the other entrance/exit road but ran into (not literally) a locked gate. Some signs pointing to open exits would be nice. All in all, I got the impression of a pretty cool drag strip where the facility managers did enough to ensure a great experience for racers and a good one for spectators.

I cannot say enough great things about this place, we had such an amazing time and the guy that was…read morethere almost every day that we were there, his name is Steven. He truly made this place so special, and every time we came back, personally came up and shook our hands and thanked us for coming back. The last day, my wife even came out and rode with us, and he went up to her and shook her hand and welcomed her back, even though it was her first time racing with us, when she usually sat in the car to watch the baby. Steven, is truly a special individual, who you can tell truly loves his job. I would come back over and over again, as long as he was here, because he truly made the experience at this racetrack so awesome. On the second day, we brought our son, Austin, who is autistic and Steven was so nice and gentle with him, and helped us make him comfortable enough to where he was able to actually ride the go karts with me. Not only didn't bring me as a father to tears, it brought my wife to tears as well because it was the first time my son actually did something outside of his comfort zone, and Steven made it truly enjoyable for all of us. He did not look at us differently, because we had a special-needs kid, but instead gave us so much care and graciousness and made us felt like we were friends of his. I cannot wait to come back here the next time, and hopefully Steven will be here because he truly made this trip want to remember
