Chicagoland Speedway Reviews

Great track, I found it easy in and out after race. A wide verity of food and beverages to enjoy.

Nice for a family if you get their early you can meet the drivers. You can go in the pits.

Short track, huge amount of vendors. Prices on food and beverages won't break you. Tailgating allowed and very entertaining.

Hot long walk to speedway but worth the trek to see nascar anytime

No NASCAR races at Chicagoland speedway anymore because they will demolition the racetrack be a warehouse industrial park.

Great place to watch race... if city has it bulldozed it'll be a reason to dislike Chicago.

Great weekend of camping and Nascar racing .Porta potties are constantly kept clean nice job cls

New Founders Pass seating is fantastic. By far the most comfortable auto racing seating I've ever experienced. If you're a racing fan, you owe this to yourself.

Great experience for my grandson! This place had lots of activities ,super organized, reasonable ticket price and super family friendly.

All around good time at events held here. NO bad seats. =)

Love this race track my favorite out of all the Nascar tracks I've been to, great seat no matter where you sit.

The food was amazing not to mention the racing unbelievable!

GOOD NASCAR RACE NOT VERY MANY PEOPLE AT THIS RACE??? MY FAVOURITE #24 JEFF GORDON CAME OUT OF RETIREMENT..... FILLED IN FOR DALE EARNHARDT JR. WENT TO ALL!! RACES. WE EVEN SEEN TONY STEWART ON THE DIRT. RIGHT NEXT DOOR!!

While I was not there to watch a race, the Girls on the Run 5K was amazing! The girls ran/walked there hearts out!

IT IS AMAZING , 4 DAYS OF RACING AND 5 NIGHTS OF CAMPING WITH LOTS TO DO ALL THE TIME

it is a awsome i,m glade it is going back to the july race in 2018

Where do I begin? Son got an Aric Almirola autograph. Peple were fun...even bus driver....oh...and young man in front of us in line donated his wristband. Wait. Upon entry guy in parking lot teased me about my steering wheel grip...told my son to keep an eye on me. Merchandise shop had no Aric Almirola hats so we were told the truck selling his stuff was out there. I had no idea there was a truck for each racer. We stand in line to buy StewartHaas Almirola stuff and we are told AA himself is signing autographs!. Guy ahead of us senses we are clueless and gives us his spare wristband (as wristband is given 8am to 10 or first 50 purchases?..and autographs soon after that). We get to the front, he signs autograph and says "have fun today, enjoy the race buddy" to my son who is almost 9 years old and starstruck.
We ended up buying Almirola diecast car...hat and tee shirt for my son... Then...people were so nice. Free parking. Free shuttle bus. Food is about 9 to 14 per person with drinks. Audience viewers are all friendly and or slightly giddy. Rainstorm was a monsoon ...felt like titanic sinking. Race resumed. Got NBC coverage with 48 dollar headphones...lady gave us a discount
..free 2nd headphone for son. Dale Earnhardt Jr and racer radios could be heard...along with NBC woman whispering instructions to cameramen. We loved it. June 21 2020...mark your calendars people. The aluminum seats are hot so bring a pillow and blanket
Bring frozen water bottles (like 4 per person) to survive. Bring earplugs or buy tje headphones (rental was about $50 but worth every penny...believe me!) Perfect experience despite monsoon like rain delay. People kept smiling and were so nice. People who claim it is all this or that type of people can kiss it. There were ALL types of people and they were ALL really really kind to each other. Best sporting event experience of my 51 years....and my son LOVED it. The exit was a mess since it rained and 2 or 3 cars were muddy...but oh well. Perfect
June 21 2020 we Cannot wait

Thought the big screens would be bigger, other than that it's not on my bucket list

Track was easy to get to, and quick to exit. Great seat options including ones with chairs and table in shade or more basic bench seating. Parking was ample but due to rain even 4 wheel drive vehicles were getting stuck in the mud when trying to leave. Rules were not enforced by staff (a patron had to complain to staff about smoking in the stands to get the concern addressed - then the offender started smoking again and it was ignored by staff, people had umbrellas in the stands, as well as patrons were asked to vacate stands over loudspeaker but were given no recommendations of where to safely go when wind speeds were dangerous and lightning was close). Seats are different prices but no one was monitoring that people had actually paid for the seat they were sitting in. People who paid $180 for their seat commented that if they had known they could pay $30 and still sit in an upper level seat they would have. Track is great, but rules and seats need to be enforced.

I was here for only a day and I begun to grow a mullet and drink bud light. I started screaming "raise hell praise dale"... immediately after I went and bought a el Camino and started listening to free bird. I am currently in rehab. Trying to get back to normal. Thanks nascar....

Great time if you like drag racing nascar or demo derbys

What a special day. The staff/crew were all amazing. Tyler and Brianne were definite standouts. The very definition of "knock your socks of service". Brianne is now part of our family! Thanks to all.

Weather was junk but the lacrosse tournament was fun

The track is awesome . The fans are friendly and the racing was exciting. The torrential downpour on June 30th did not dampen our spirits though. We will go back for our 8th trip next year. Jim Helfrich , Niles,Mi.

The place to go for Nascar racing, ride alongs etc. Drag strip in complex offers Friday Saturday Sunday racing all summer long and you can bring your own car and run it down the track. See their website for details. Rt. 66 Dragstrip

Joliet is a great city. It's wonderful to have a nationally recognized location in town. Joliet has so much potential, and there are so many great people here. This city deserves even more great places like the speedway. The speedway is cool, and I hope more great places continue to be built in the area.

Attended a music festival here years ago, what an amazing experience. Please bring back EDC here.

Great place to share an experience with your family!

The food was great had lots of fun hanging out with friends

Spectator friendly. Designed to see the entire track, no matter where you sit.

Good people on a bad weather day 2019. We will go again though.

We visited the speedway for the Gander Outdoor truck series race. My wife bought me tickets for Father's day. We had a great time

Nice place for a race. In the middle of nowhere. Did the racing experience where I rode in a Nascar which was wild!

Impressive views. Rusty Wallace driving school NASCAR seemed better organized than exotics. 35mph is all I could muster on the straights bit jearing engine growl was worth it. Maybe watching a race would be more fun.

Nascar in the 3rd largest city next to Route 66 and the Blues Brothers = a great idea. Glad to have been able to make it to last weekend's race.

I went to see the Nascar race and everything was smooth getting in. But when it was time to leave everyone was stuck in their cars for about 1 hour. They need to do a better job getting people out of the parking lot in an orderly fashion.

This warehouse was managed correctly. Staff from the receptionist to the manager was very professional, and one of the cleanest operations I have ever encountered.

Plenty of bathrooms, free parking, bring in your own cooler. Affordable live event.

It was one amazing experience, went there for the Blacklight run. It was a 5k run event but there was more fun to it. Lots of colors, pre run party with music was great. Once the race got over, we had a post run party too. I was lucky to win quite few gifts like glowing gloves, glowing necklace. Also, for parking there were lot of space, so it wasn't a issue either

Great track staff and accomadations for elderly fans.

First time coming to this venue and wasnt to bad at all. Plenty of room to grill and bbq before the race. Decent vendors and food around the track. Wasnt on the big and jam packed like i am used to. Prices were a little high i thought.

Excellent facilities. And before you climb the grandstands there is an elevator. Speak from experience

Well organized from the parking lot, to concessions, to seating. Great views. We were very satisfied. Will be back

Had a great time this past weekend, never a dull moment. Worth it.

Proud to say I've been there several times. Will continue to visit this place. Food is crazy. People are more than king. Great atmosphere. Love parking lot party's.

It's a great place to watch a race. I do recommend a scanner with a headset... or some kind of hearing protection. It's very, very loud. I went for the first time in 2015. I had ear protection, my friend did not. He couldn't hear for almost a week after the race.
