Get to the track early, experience fan zone
The fan zone at NASCAR racedays is a great spot. Fans are gathered outside of the gates to enjoy the morning, play games, find giveaways and score awesome merchandise. Make sure to get to the track plenty early and take in the scene before the race.
Speaking of merchandise, stop by the haulers
Near the fan zone, there are merchandise haulers with all kinds of items for sale. Anything from hats, t-shirts, flags, pens, pencils and, of course, diecast cars, are available in these haulers. The haulers are separated by race team (for example, Hendrick Motorsports is in one hauler with Chase Elliott, Kyle Larson, William Byron and Alex Bowman merchandise).
Bring that sunscreen!
Sunscreen is a must whenever you’re out in the sun for an extended period of time. The NASCAR Texas race will be no different. Bring in your sunscreen and keep yourself safe during the race (remember, even if it’s overcast, you can still experience sunburn).
