Is the Dome racing in Saint Louis worth taking in?

[Rev]

Traveling about 5 hours. Any comments from first hand experience would be appreciated.

[grt74]

short answer , yup

[larsonwon]

absolutely, the atmosphere alone is worth it.

i went a couple of years ago and it was one of the best shows i've ever seen. i watch it every year on Flo, but nothing can replace being there in person. i would definitely recommend making it a priority.

You can't beat the atmosphere of the dome and downtown St Louis with all the race fans everywhere all weekend.

Just expect to pay for parking an high price concessions an if you eat downtown before the race expect 45 mins to 1 hour wait in line. Racing is ok but atmosphere is rowdy an you will see some fights in the stands an expect late nights start at 2 be lucky to get out by 1030 11

Plan on watching about 7 hours of cautions and red flags and about 20 minutes of actual racing. JMO.

Don't forget top speeds of 45 mph with that whining... L

It sounds as if it can put on some real " YAWNER " races ? ?

[Raceready]

It was sarcasm. I think the racing has been great there but there's always those silly folks on here whining about low speeds... It's still good racing, dam good racing!

I'd be willing to wager that them there speeds don't seem quite so slow when the driver is that close to the ground ?

It's definitely better in person than it is on TV

What did they get 2 year ago ? Something like 64 rollovers during the event ? ?

[Buford.Justice]

One rollover at Browstown and they would grade it flat. lol

I went every year, except for last year, and I never saw a single fight in the stands.

How about in the pits ? ?

We have definitely NEVER had 64 rollovers. Not sure we have even had over 10 during any one year.
