My father and husband signed up for the ride of their life. Just two laps with an experienced driver but worth every penny. What a rush!

As all of us NASCAR fans know ,Pocono is the most boring race on the schedule(excluding New Hampshire). None the less it is Sprint Cup,anybody else have trouble not saying Winston Cup? The Matiolas must be marketing geniuses because I thought Poconos would have gone the way of the Rock a long time ago. But it is the excitement of... More

Very nice family owned nascar racetrack. However getting out of the parking lots can take an hour or 2 during the nascar races. The parking lot to the right seemed to exit quite quicker than the one on the left that we parked in. Great time for tailgating/camping/partying.

Pocno raceway is very unigue and has the speed down the frontstretch. Noise, Smell, speed of racing is experienced while sitting in the stands. Sit high since this track is BIG. Traffic in and out of the racetrack is a problem....expect delays.

My best man planned this as a bachelor party for me and it was a great time. The weather, I hear, is often hit or miss being that you are up in the Poconos. We had monsoon downpours on the Saturday which basically cancelled everything from some races to concerst etc. Things cleared up tho and the racing got underway... More

My husband said the Pocono Raceway driving experience was the best. The experience for daredevils who wish to drive at 180mph is awesome, once in a lifetime. He loved it and recommends it.

We camped out around turn number 3 it was a fun time. You can't see the whole track from the stands. The prices for food and drinks are high but are about on par with other sporting events.

Pocono Raceway in Long Pond, PA is home of the Pennsylvania 500 and Pocono 500 races. The track provides for an exciting race with higher speeds than other tracks due to its tri-oval shape. A must do is the pre-race pit passes. These allow you access to the pitroad for activities prior to the race and other days prior to... More
