NASCAR Pre-Race Pit Passes
The smell of high-octane fuel. Engineers performing complex calculations. No, you're not in the Boeing test labs, you're in the pit at Atlanta Motor Speedway or Orange County Speedway. How do you get the pit? Buy a three-day race pit pass. Don't bring your future Rusty Wallace's though, unless your kids are older than 14. With a pre-race pit pass NASCAR Nextel Cup series ticket, you get to tour the pit and the garage, meet the pit crew, and maybe hobnob with Dale Earnhardt Jr.
Wow, you think, you can get all this with your regular auto racing tickets. Wrong. Pre-race pit passes are separate from your regular NASCAR race tickets, unless you buy suite passes, which cost $300-$550 at Atlanta Motor Speedway. If you're not living the suite life, you can still buy pre-race passes, but for a hefty price. The geniuses in the pit have to concentrate!
Still, if you check with your NASCAR ticket broker, you can get a deal on a pre-race pit pass, say just for the afternoon. Think pit passes are, well, the pits? Opt for NASCAR race tickets near the start/finish line, spear some motor oil on your face and enjoy a pseudo-version of "Days of Thunder."
