What is the best way to go to the TX Motor Speedway? Camp out, Taxi, Drive...? How long should I stay?

TMS is very safe!! We are season ticket holders and my in-laws have had their tickets since it opened in 1997 and have always camped. If this was a NASCAR weekend, you would want to camp, if possible. But being Indy weekend, you can get away with driving back and forth since it is not as heavily attended as the April/November races. There are tons of places to camp. There are some free places, most cost around $70 for the weekend (i think) that are further out from the speedway. The closer to the speedway you get, the more expensive it gets and you may actually need a special pass to get in. But regardless of where you camp, there are shower/bath houses here and there that you can use for free. I think camping is a great way to truly get the feel of the speedway. There are always bands set up at night and people just partying. We take a camper, but there are always tons of people with tents. There are no places within walking distance unless you stay across I-35 or at the really expensive place across 114. But if you are not going to camp, I suggest just driving to the race and back since the traffic will not be that bad - it just sucks that the races start so late in the evening. Best of luck in your decision and get some nachos while you are there!
