Florence Speedway - INCREDIBLE!

park all the cars in the cow lot outside turn 1 and 2.

Sounds like a good idea to me. Some of us campers come way early to get a close camping spot because we can't walk long distances. Most of the campers are dedicated fan who come every year.

On another subject, I've seen fans come out after the race and RUN to a car parked in a handicap spot.

So it's ok to make people not camping walk a longer distance than campers?? Most people camping have golf carts so why do they need to be right next to the track. Parking all campers in the cow lot and cars in the parking lot makes more sense. People driving in and not camping are just as loyal and probably more so because many are locals and support the track weekly, not just one weekend.

The handicap parking is needed. They just need to enforce that the handicap person is in the vehicle. Also some people may run to the car, but it doesn't mean the handicap person isn't following along at a slower pace.

We've never been to Florence. Would very much like to attend a race there sometime. I measured it on Google Earth and it appears to be right at 2000' as measured up by the wall. Nice sized track, not a little bull ring but not a big ol' half mile, either.

According to their schedule they have just 3 more events in Sept. & Oct. A question for you folks who live nearby. It appears that they do not run a regular weekly show. Would that be correct?

They run weekly shows from March until August and the North/South. After the North/South, the track usually takes at least a month off. Then it's just a few races in September and October. Usually around 20-22 race weekends a year unless there are rainouts.

try the one in oct

[lokwaidid]

years ago they tried to run every week till oct. the crowds were terrible. once high school foot ball would start that didn't help either. more people in the pits than in the stands.
now the other tracks around are having their big shows and Florence just closes to help them maybe. like birky fan said, try the fall 50 late in oct.

One of the best racing weekends in the last 10 years for myself. The track provided great two and three wide racing for three nights! I appreciate the effort made by the track prep crew, they did a great job each night to have the track in the condition they did. THANK YOU FOR A JOB WELL DONE!!

Thanks Gary.

The run weekly shows until the N/S weekend. Then just 2 or 3 more after that. I have been to tracks all over and Florence is second to none for racing, most of the time. They know how to run a show. I am bias it is my home track. LOL
Not really, they do a great job. As for camping, I will leave that to people who do it. I never have, so No opinion. But the racing itself is tremendous

LOL Gary, you beat me to it. Isn't it great having a track like this to go to so close?

They will suffer greatly most likely for punishing their crippled bodies like that!!!!

Yes sir, it is great. It's a really short drive for us to go every week.

Great job by the Kings having the track in great shape for all three nights of racing.
