loudon dover or pocono

[tabascojet]

havent been to a race since i left florida for the north. and ive never seen a race outside of the south. any pros or cons in attending the three tracks above?

 

[bksballer89]

I would suggest Dover.

Pocono is a pretty boring race

 

[pitman]

Out of those 3 I would go to Dover, High bank semi-short track. lots of action.

Fuck Pocono

Fuck Pocono

Hate that track. I have no idea how that track still got 2 dates on the schedule.

At least they cut 100 miles off that race because 500 miles there was so damn boring

Never been to Loudon.

Pocono only has seats on the front stretch and that back corner is just too far away. Of course it has been so long since I went there that Geoffrey Bodine won.

Dover was a nice race to go to, but for some reason they held our area of the parking lot for 4 hours. The good thing with that is that they have slot machine casinos within walking distance while you wait.

Dover for sure then Loudon then Pocono. Michigan and Indy are fun too but dunno how far you want to travel.

Michigan has gotten so bad that they were giving away two tickets if you would buy $20 worth of Coke products. If you can get tickets in turn one looking down the front stretch it is a nice view, but still for me it would be Dover of the five listed.

I don't know where you are starting from, but if Martinsville is within your range it is worth it. Cheapest tickets and normally an enjoyable race to go to.

4 hours straight down 58. We use to leave at 6 in the morning and get parked at around 10-11. Watch the race then drive back home. We would be back in Va Bch around 10-11 at night. If you do that though be careful around Emporia, it is a speed trap.

I like pocono.

But of the 3 dover is probably the most exciting.

Loudon is about the only thing I agree with Kyle Petty on, fill it up with water and stock it for fishing.

Holy shit. Some one alert all the news wires. We've found a person that likes Pocono! This is gonna be the biggest story since the moon landing.

 

[Chewbaccer]

I enjoy watching races at Pocono, but I've never been to any of the 3, and I would assume that you wouldn't be able to see much on the other side of the track at Pocono. Pocono has been a pretty good race since the repave.

If I were gonna be in attendance, I'd pick Dover.

 

[Chewbaccer]

A lot of the tracks I used to hate have improved since repaves and new cars. Hell, Michigan and Fontana haven't been bad the last couple years and the same goes for Pocono.

New Hampshire is probably my least favorite track. Either that or the Brickyard. IMO, NASCAR has no business at Indy and the boring races prove it.

I'm going to Darlington this year for the first time since 98 or 99. Can't remember the year, but the Burton brothers finished 1-2(or maybe that was the Busch race). Can't wait. It's by far my favorite track.
