Do they still let you bring in coolers? With beer.

I don't think so, but I'm not positive
I went last year to get pastrana's signiture for my son and we drank a few in the parking lot and bought some inside
Kazoo lets you, my friends son is racing there this year and you can bring it right in no problem
I grew up in comstock park and used to ride my motorcycle there sometimes and would stop and sit outside the track on the road to the north west, have a smoke and listen and smell the rubber burning, unless I went to the race of course

My wife and I were going to do a camp out by invite only there , so I mowed an a acre and a half. And never got to it this year. Had some friends camp there when the Duck Dynasty car raced a couple weeks back.

that sounds cool, i love the little local tracks like that
i have really enjoyed kazoo too, even the little kids love it.
my friends son who races is my sons age, 14, and he is really short and uses our old booster seat that our 5 yr old grew out of in his race car, puts it right in his racing seat to see over the dash, too funny
