Charlotte Motor Speedway Reviews

Went for the swap meet and had a great time. Seeing tons of awesome cars, parts, and tools

2nd best track in the USA, sorry, but Bristol is just so much more fun!

Been going every year since I was in elementary school have seen a lot of improvements in the track

Racing just ain't the same as it use to be. Still had a great time!

Stopped here before going to Martinsville race to check your the race shops and stuff

Loved the Christmas light festival. You drive around the race track to music that's playing in time with the lights. Stop at the Bethlehem Inn for a photo with Santa, vendors, petting zoo, food and Smores. Bring your own Smores and sticks to roast.

My husband participated in the Driving Experience. It was an awesome and amazing day and opportunity. We very much like the Charlotte track and have attended many races. We will continue to go to this track.

Great place to watch a race. Plus they have concerts, Christmas lights, car shows and other things going on pretty regularly.

Loved Carolina Rebellion, we had a blast. Will be going again next year!

It's a race track not much can be said, however I love the 4 lane drag trip. I also like taking the kids to the monster truck shows.

Good views from seats. Great signs for locations. Extremely helpful staff. Clean restrooms. Nice job in state police with traffic control.

Always great at their Christmas Fest. Get the VIP Pass or whatever it's called, you'll thank me later!

This is our second year coming to the show. Last year five stars. We did not like the music this year. We loved the s'mores and Kendrix Singletary. He is very talented and kind to my family. We had a blast.

Great place to watch a motorsports event. What ever you like... NASCAR, NHRA drag racing, dirt track racing, car shows, swap meets. There's a little bit for everyone

It truly is the greatest place to see the race! But...there is much more going on there!! The Speedway Christmas is about to open with over 3.5 million lights, the Bethlehem Village, petting zoo, carriage rides, games and fun rides for the children, great food and so much more!! Kicking off the season with the Eggnog Jog Saturday the 18th!!

Driving was definitely the experience of a lifetime!! I'll definitely go back again. Thanks to everyone who made this happen

Great track! We got to sit right inside the track behind the pit area! Staff were super friendly, and super helpful! If only we lived close enough to go ahead sometime!

The Roval was AWESOME!!! This track also has the best fans in Nascar!

Just as they advertise, "The greatest place to see the race." It is. Friendly staff and a very nice facility. Certainly a crown jewel on the NASCAR circuit. Lots of race shops, restaurants, and stores nearby, as well as the NASCAR Hall of Fame. What more could a race fan ask for?

If you like racing, CMS is one of the best tracks to go see a race. There is also plenty of hotels, restaurants & shopping areas really close by. If you want to drive a race car, do the Dale Jarrett racing experience. It was one of the funnest things I've ever done. Getting to drive 170 mph a couple of feet from the wall will make you see racing in a new way. Wow!!!

The race is great you must try the sundeck and let the rubber fly.

What can you say about a dirt track. Awesome experience extremely well run and organized. Only negitive would be the price of conncession stands. $ 6.00 hot dogs buy yourself a sandwich at the firehouse and tote it in with you

Amazing place. Andretti racing experience is awesome.

A few nice rides for kids, good place with farm animals( but you can't pet them) and not a big variety of food. Lights are okay but not spectacular.

Took my grandson to the lights it was beautiful can't wait togo back next year

The campers are to close together we didn't even have room to put out our bago boards

Enjoyed the family visit here. A bit pricy for a family to attend.

AMAZING! is the only thing to say. Also if you want to enjoy all the pre-race things, ARRIVE SUPER EARLY.

We went here for the Christmas light show on 12/ 2/2017 and we were not pleased at all. We usually go to Bristol motor speedway in lights and that s absolutely amazing, we wanted to try something new this year and it was a huge disappointment, and the price is unreal. The only cool part was driving on the track which you can do at Bristol motor speedway as well. We won t be back for the Christmas lights here. It was a let down. The money they make there , they could have a way better light show. I recommend going to Bristol motor speedway in Tennessee. The lights are amazing .

Much better to experience it in person, we had a great time.

Great time at Bank of America 500. Awesome concerts there as well. Jake Owen rocked before the show.

Awesome track good experience for any Nascar race fan!

I go to every race at the Speedway each year and always have a blast. There are tons of concessions, tons of restrooms, and very helpful staff. My only complaint is the tracks way of handling weather. The last two times we've had to evacuate the stands because of lightening in the area (totally understandable) the staff does not direct the flow of people. We always sit in the front row at the bottom and when people have to evacuate the stands, they congregate at the top and block people from getting through. We end up standing on the metal bleachers in the pouring rain with lightening in the area which is clearly a safety issue. Otherwise, I love coming here!

I've never actually been here for a race, only for Christmas Speedway with my family and they never disappoint! A great alternative to Mcadenville!

I've been to this track for more than 30 races, but this was the first Roval. Great addition Charlotte!

Turn 2, outer wall, spot 14, overview position gives you a pretty good view of 90% of the track. Watched the drivers race tonight, enjoyed the race and a few cold ones.

Cool place. Lots of events going on simultaneously. The garages were perfect for our tires changes etc. Good stuff.

Charlotte Motor Speedway Christmas lights. We'll worth the 2 hours it will take to drive the route. Kids or adults, great time for all. Don't be in a hurry and be sure to stop for coco and smores at the village.

Innovative technology makes flashy display break away from a traditional Seasonal Celebration of Lights. Merry Christmas Everyone!

I was there for the Auto Fair on that Friday morning and evening and we was disappointed cause there was not a lot of vendors there or not open up yet. The gates open at 8:00 am and people was barely moving. It was 95 degrees that day and boy's was it Hot. After about 3 breaks to the car to get cool off and my friend couldn't find what he was looking for we decided to call it a day. There was hardly no show cars that day so if you going for the car show go on Saturday.

Excellent, had A-blast around the track in the tour van, Steve let it all hang out!

Free parking, great price on the seats. Wish they watched more for smoking. People were smoking and vaping.

***Worst memory of the Christmas season!!!!*** Dec 22nd we waited with 7 little grandkids for 4 HOURS before seeing the lights. Bring spare water, diapers, food, games.... The lights were cool, but it's not worth more than an hour's wait. We called ahead to check on the wait and were told that if we get there by 6pm, there would be no problem. We got there before 6, but it took 30 minutes to get onto the property - three and half hours later we saw the lights. There were no escape routes except right where you pay. It was memorable, and we laugh now but it was so painful and so miserable. They need to have a better warning system and information on the wait times. Go early in the season and early in the evening.

Great race. Great staff. Wonderful weekend of NASCAR Racing

We had a really nice time watching the different racers. Seating wasnt too crowded. Parking was easy. Getting out wasnt bad either. We had a really good time.

Love Speedway Christmas!!! Love how they change up the theme every year and keep the lights to music show!!!

Extremely kid-friendly display! Enjoyment for all ages.

My first time in a Nascar race and in Charlotte speedway, Great views from the VIP suite, I recommend it to anyone who likes racing cars.

Very limited viewing of total track.No coffee available in the morning.Great camping area.

We went here for the Christmas light show. They thought of everything! Really enjoyable, even a place to pull over and take pictures. A fun family night for all. Some nice treats inside and some good photo spots

I have had the pleasure of working with the Richard Petty driving experience and now Nascar Racing experience and have driven 11 different track and Charlotte Motor speedway is definitely one of my favorites!

Omg today was my first day to go there and my meme got a pass so I could go out by the track there is nothing yall can fix because it was just great...photo was taken by me

Did the 2 hour tour totally worth it.... AWESOME AWESOME staff... GREAT place to visit!! Thanks!

We watched the Coca cola 600 and this is an awesome track. Very exciting. Turn 3 is crazy!!

First NASCAR experience. I don't know a lot about this world, but I will say two things. The staff at the Motor Speedway were really professional, and clearly had it all together. With a crowd this size, it was amazingly well organized. Security was good, and the parking was well labeled. Even if we parked about a mile away, still easy to access the race. And second, if it is your first time and you haven't got friends that will level with you, hear it loud and clear: to enjoy the race, headphones or ear plugs are essential. Everyone has them, I'm sure we looked silly not having them. One negative I will say about the Speedway, none of the upper deck water fountains in the Ford section worked. That could be addressed, right?

Calling all Nascar and any type of racing fan. Go to this speedway. Entire operation is concerned about the fans and fan experience. Fabulous tour! Torino was our guide. Very knowledgeable, thorough. Ride around the track was great. Definitely recommend the Over the Wall tour. It is a great value for the money. Speedway restaurant is somewhat ritzy, caters to the crowd with money but they treated us well and we got great service and food. And, there are recycle containers everywhere. You know they are the good guys if they recycle.
