10 Tips for Your First NASCAR Track Side Experience

This past weekend, I went to my first NASCAR track. That's right folks, I had never been to a track before the Dover race last week.

After my experience, though, I've decided to share a list of things for others who are getting ready to go to a NASCAR track so that they can avoid the troubles I ran into.

Some of the things on this list may seem obvious, but they are key things to remember to fully enjoy the experience.

Not only did I go to the race, I was lucky enough to get hot passes to go into the garage and pit area.

I wondered around the track for over an hour and eventually made my way into the pits to watch the race, as I tried to take in everything I could.

And this was just the Nationwide Series on Saturday.

By the time Sunday came around, I thought was a seasoned track veteran, but I still had a few things to learn.

These 10 tips can help you fully enjoy your NASCAR experience the next time you make it to a track.
