WILDEBILL308 Posted September 7, 2017 Report Share Posted September 7, 2017 This may help those evacuating ahead of Hurricane Irma. "Those interested in RV or tent camping at Atlanta Motor Speedway should enter the facility at Entrance "E" off GA Highway 19/41. The Unreserved Campgrounds will be on the left. From I-75 and GA Highway 20, campers should see signs to AMS and follow Lower Woolsey road to Entrance “H” and the Speedway Credential Building. Make a right into Speedway property and then another immediate right onto Richard Petty Boulevard. Follow Richard Petty Boulevard and turn left into Entrance “G”. The campgrounds will be on the right." Wednesday afternoon, Talladega Speedway announced it is also opening part of its campgrounds to evacuees. Those campgrounds include hot shower and restroom facilities, as well as water hookups on gravel and grassy areas.

SWharton Posted September 7, 2017 Report Share Posted September 7, 2017 This brings up a question in my mind. Do motor speedways(when there is no race) have overnight camping available? Like a fairground? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobsallyh Posted September 8, 2017 Report Share Posted September 8, 2017 SWharton, the only one I know of is Charlotte Motorspeedway. I knew they used to and just Goggled it and seems like they still do. The only problem would be if an event is ongoing just like the fairgrounds. I've been to numerous tracks and Charlotte was the only one I remember. Since Eldora, OH. has been sold to Tony Stewart, I don't know, but under the former owners you could park overnight. http://www.charlottemotorspeedway.com/camping/yearround/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
