I am seriously considering going to the Coca Cola 600 it will be around the same time me and Pookie will have been five years together and thought it would be fun thing to do.

I know you romantic types would not think of this but hey our first date they took me out to movies to see this movie so anything is a go at that point ... hehe The Rundown


I was thinking seats in Turn One would probably be the best so you can also see the Winner' Circle. If you have been where do you normall sit?

IMO when I check out the raceway it seem the Ford Upper Deck would be a good place to see the whole race on every corner is the better option

Ticketmaster has a promo that was sent to my email about a family four pack for 156 is this decent or is there better options to get tickets?

Nothing wrong w/ bringing friends along on a first date - or to the Coke 600, for that matter. Still romantic.

ok maybe I did word it incorrectly the coca cola 600 is around the same time of our five year anniversary.

What I am curious for those who have been to a race at Lowes where did you sit at and has anyone sat at the Upper Deck of the Ford Terrace and what was that like?

SunnyKayak, my brother used to hold two season tickets to seats in that area. It's great. First of all, it's got elevator access if you don't like the (loooong) walk up the stairs. Second, it's got it's own "private" concourse area with picnic tables and whatnot, so it's great to not have to fight with the crowds down along the main concourse area. You're up high, so you can see all of the track, and get an especially good view of the pit areas. I was hoping to someday bring my wife, who's handicapped, to this section, because the handicap seating areas actually cantilever over the track, and must provide an awesome vantage point for the front stretch.

I would recommend the front stretch. Make sure you sit high enough to see the whole track. If I had my druthers, I'd sit near or just to the left of the start/finish line so you can see driver intorductions. If you'd like I can give you the name/number of the lady we use at the track to buy our tickets. She can tell you what row is best for whatever view you're hoping to get. Just to clarify- did you mean the CC 600 in May, or the BOA 500 coming up in Oct?

Sunny, the Coca Cola 600 is always in May - something worth seeing at least once! You two should definitely try it.
