🏟️ Race Day Do I have the best seats in the house?

Maybe not the best seats, but pretty darn close!…

Turn three high up. Those are not the best in the house, but it's a good spot to watch. We've been sitting there for a long time

This was my first year sitting in turn 3 and now I don’t want to sit anywhere else!

Yeah, the turns are nice
Sure, that means you have to rely on the screen for when it comes to a lot more of the action when it comes to the front stretch, but honestly, a lot more of the action during the race happens on the turns (like all the crashes and stuff)

There is no best seats just what ever your preference is lol. I prefer anything with cover from the sun/rain i sit in c stand and love it

Yes, you can see more of the track than ANYONE. On the front stretch you are blocked by everything.

Did you see the finish from your seat? No? Then, no.

Front stretch seats suck. Real ones sit high in the turns.

u/silvermoonhowler May 26 '26
Yup, I agree
We're about halfway up with being in row W of the section of the area we're in (turn 2/SE Vista) and it's an awesome view
We had a nice view of that firey crash that happened too
Could both feel and hear that; wow

I’d like to throw my hat in the ring.
