I’ve never been to a nascar and I’ve heard great things about both. I’m trying to decide between both of them. We’ll get an rv and camp on the inside track at whichever one we choose. Any suggestions?

Talladega by far if you’ll be on the infield

I don’t think you could go wrong with either. I think Talladega has the better racing, and definitely is a huge party if you’re there for camping. However, if you have the opportunity to go to the Daytona 500, that’s hard to pass up because of what it is.

They are both great. But I have been to Dega twice and have had a great time both times. Your feet literally shake under you the first time the pack comes by you under power.

Plus, nobody does debauchery like the Dega infield.

I’d go to Dega but Daytona is an awesome track to see. Dega has a party in the infield all weekend long.

We’ll be going for a bachelor party and everyone is 30. We went to mullet toss a few years ago and that was wild. Is talladega on the level of mullet toss?

I only wanted to go once. Got w major sponsor customer of mine. We did Dega on the infield for two days and I got what I wanted. On big race day they threw us in stands … we lasted an hour then headed home . Great experience don’t need to do again

PSA Don’t forget Fried Bologna Sandwich

Talladega used to be a riot, especially if you RV'd over by the mud hole.

Daytona is okay, but it's no Bristol

Mullet toss is a bunch of college frats and sororities trying to act like debaucherous rednecks. Dega is the major league of actual debaucherous rednecks.

Daytona, preferably the July race.

Talladega’s infield is full of RV’s that hire strippers and set up a stage for your enjoyment the two nights leading up to the race. Grab a tent, hit the campgrounds with some booze, and purchase infield passes.

Oh yeah, there will be funnel cakes in the infield too. So that’s an added bonus.

It’s in August now. At least this year.

Daytona doesn’t have a July race anymore. It’s at the end of August now.

It’s a travesty, I know.

Talladega has a bigger ratio of incestuous
people and Daytona is the better track and experience

My one and only NASCAR experience of any kind (including TV) was a Talladega race my senior year of high school. It was just me, a buddy, and an above average looking girl and we took a car into the infield. I was the driver. Looking back on it, I’m shocked my parents let me go.

Anyway, the race was cancelled or postponed a day or whatever because of rain. But before that my friends and I were kinda of stranded in the rain when these 30-40 year olds invited us into their RV. We hung out for a while and the girl made out with one of them. (I think she’s the only reason they invited our asses in in the first place.) Then later when we were outside I saw lots of tits and some guy stripped naked and ran and dove head first into a mud puddle like he was the winning run in Game 7 of the World Series or some shite - and then jumped afterwards like he scored.

It was an experience for sure.

Well that's dumb. Especially with kids going back to school so early now.

Hard not to say Daytona especially if you have a week or so.
In the past, the infield at Talladega has been instrumental in the development of young men's introductions to and appreciation of the female upper torso.
