Hello Race Fans. As many of you know, Bubbate & Both Bubbas have been to many tracks that run NASCAR races. We decided to put out a report card. We hope this will help fans when they are deciding on what race track to visit. We are grading the tracks on what is important to us & the hundreds of fans we talked to at each track. We also have additional notes at the end of each track’s grading.
The grades are in the following order:
Jimmy, Frankie then Jo Ann with an average at the end.

NOTES:
Jimmy: Loved watching the whole field at the same time.
Frankie: This is an exciting track to watch a race. Every seat seems to be good – but getting to your seat after walking up & down the hills can be a task. There’s a lot of bumping & hitting but sometimes too many wrecks & cautions.
Jo Ann: Ditto the above. COMPLAINT: Bathrooms had only 9 stalls and 2 sinks closest to our high dollar seats. Not important to Both Bubbas BUT since Bruton said that his tracks have more toilets than some track’s have seating, I expected more. Beware the old saying…”how the crow flies” is true here. A campground might be only .5 miles from track as the crow flies BUT as the fan walks it’s more like 5 miles. Wear real good hiking boots.
