It’s worth the high prices. Awesome racing and most importantly, NO LOWER CLASSES!!!!!!

Yep the racing there has been really good recently. I used to complain about the no support classes but that was when the car counts dipped low for a few years. They get enough to have 6 heats, B mains, Strawberry Dash and Feature I'm happy. Getting out early is nice whether you choose the night life or day time activities away from the track. Been there when car count was triple digits and saw a low in the 20's about 4-5 years ago. 50-60 cars is like the perfect number for EB.

I've been there when it was in the upper 20s with seran wrap over most of my body, under my clothes.Originally posted by grumfan View PostCheck the weather before you leave home. I've been there in shorts and a tee shirt. I've also been there in a carhart with the hood up! Just don't miss it. Only five years left.Modern Day Spec Wedge Racing

I've always had better weather at East Bay than at Volusia. At Volusia I've been rained out, fogged out, had my winter coat on and still froze. Beaches are good, dog track is fun(and it may be the last year), food galore in Tampa, St Pete, and the beach towns. Deep sea fishing is fun. Restaurants will cook your catch. Charter a boat or hop on a head boat out of Johns Pass or Clearwater. Let the bashing begin. East Bay car count estimates? How many cars will Screven draw?

If you like Southern Gospel music they have a winter convention in Palmetto at the Bradenton convention center. They have free matinee concerts during the day and if you get rained out you have a great concert in the evenings. I love it when they fall on the same week as East Bay. Racing and Gospel music make for a great vacation!

What is the deal with strawberries? EastBay is something that probably won’t get checked off my bucket list, unfortunately.Guerilla Racing Junkies.
Shovel on a little more coal, then when we cross white oak mountain, watch 97 roll!
The problem is the gall dang motors.

Parking is really bad, we parked a long way out and walking back to the car in pitch black darkness is an experience in itself, also sit as high up as possible unless you like getting your face peppered with sand.Originally posted by rc75 View PostI'm going to east bay winter nationals for first time, looking for tips

It doesn't matter what day it is. If the weather is perfect parking will be tough. I'm guess they make money off camping instead of general parking obviously so they try to cram as many campers in as they canLast edited by NeedforLMspeed; 12-31-2019, 10:47 AM.2020 race count:

Easy fix.....spend $5 more and get a pit pass. Plenty of parking in the pits plus access to the pits.Originally posted by JayD View PostParking is really bad, we parked a long way out and walking back to the car in pitch black darkness is an experience in itself, also sit as high up as possible unless you like getting your face peppered with sand.
Get there early a put a cushion down to save your seat....14th row or lower, still excellent seating!
