RVING AT THE EVENT

Camping at Bristol Motor Speedway offers RV enthusiasts an excellent way to enjoy the race. The Creekside Luxury RV Park has full hookups and amenities like complimentary firewood and convenient shuttle service to and from the Speedway. Alternatively, Medallion Campground is in a gated community for added security and a touch of exclusivity. Dragstrip and The Landing campgrounds have limited hookups but overlook the track for race fans who want to soak in the action without leaving their RV.

Here are some things to keep in mind when you go camping at Bristol Motor Speedway:

• The campgrounds at the speedway fill up quickly, so it's best to make reservations six months or more in advance. However, waitlists are available for campers who are unable to reserve a campsite that far ahead of time.

• Open fires are not allowed in The Dragstrip and The Landing campgrounds. However, you may use above-ground grills with lids to prepare food.

• Generators are allowed in the campgrounds, but only in select areas, so be sure to check your campsite's information before arriving.

• Campers with an RV manufactured by the THOR Family of Companies can receive free mobile repair services during select NASCAR race weekends. To receive services, be sure to register in advance.
