Parking
There’s plenty of free parking available at Vegas Motor Speedway, so this shouldn’t be a problem. Your issue will mainly be the traffic, especially heading to such a popular venue this weekend. If you can arrive early, it will be less of a headache.
If you’re grabbing a Uber, it’s better to schedule your return ride in advance.
It’s good to know that the Motor Speedway is also known for its RV camping grounds, from which you can actually see the races. The grounds are equipped with electrical & water & sewer hookups, showers and on site security.
See you there!
