Your At-Track Experience.
-
Tours of the team hauler are a unique opportunity reserved only for team guests. Get a look into the mobile garage, conference room, office, dressing room, kitchen (and more!!) of the team while they’re on the road.
Please be aware of the tight quarters; avoid touching/exploring the space on your own. If you are interested in seeing specific areas, don’t hesitate to ask a crew member to help you get there.
-
As a guest of our team, you will have the opportunity to meet our drivers!
You will be able to spend some time with them before they strap into their trucks for the start of the race.
During these meet & greets, you can take photos and get autographs.
Please reference your weekend schedule to find out when the meet & greet will take place.
-
Join the team for a photo at the truck on pit road!
There is a very limited amount of time for photos, so have your group together and be ready.
After photos, please form a line behind the driver & crew for the national anthem.
Following pre-race ceremonies, NASCAR security will clear the grid for the start of the race.
-
Guests are welcome to join the team at the pit box. There are generally 3-4 seats available on top of the pit box for each race. Someone from our team will direct guests into designated seating and assist in rotating throughout the race, so everyone has an opportunity to view from this unique vantage-point.
You WILL be standing for at least part of the race. If you require assistance or have mobility issues, communicate those to the team before race day so we can help you plan accordingly.

First, pick up your pass and then reference the parking map to find a place to park.
Next, locate the NASCAR CRAFTSMAN Truck Series Garage area – use the provided maps and directions.
Once you’re inside the Garage, just look up! Our Team Haulers are identifiable by the large Niece Motorsports logos.

Make the most of your experience by taking time to explore the Midway, Fan Zone, and other open areas!
-
Please be mindful, the Garage and Team Haulers are working areas that have a lot of heavy equipment being moved throughout the day. Keep your head on a swivel!
Unless part of a tour, guests are asked not to congregate inside the Team Haulers. Space is very tight, and crew members need access to the cabinets and equipment inside throughout the day.
Please be sure that no bags or other personal items are left in the Team Haulers. We recommend taking all belongings either to your vehicle, or keep with you at the Pit Box prior to the start of the race.
-
Food and drinks are available throughout the track. Depending on track, there may be food vendors set up in the Infield/near the Garage, and/or in the Fan Zone areas, usually located along the main track entrance/grandstands.
The team will have water, sodas, and sports drinks in a cooler at the hauler and pit box for your enjoyment.
If you’d like to bring your own food and drinks, please feel free! Be advised that depending on the track, personal food/drinks might not be allowed in the Grandstands should you decide to purchase tickets.
Alcoholic beverages are never permitted inside the Garage, on Pit Road or in any competition areas, per NASCAR rules and regulations.

Pay attention to NASCAR Officials and Track Security and follow any instructions they give you. Guests are not permitted to stand or sit in the front half of the Pit Stall or on Pit Wall during the race. That space is reserved for crew members and equipment.
Please be mindful that pit road is a busy place, especially during caution periods. If you are behind the Pit Box, please stand behind the marked line to avoid injury.
During the race, equipment may be thrown and/or moved hastily. Do not stand in the way of fuel cans or tires (they are very hot when they come off the truck!).
-
Please dress for the weather and check the forecast before leaving home. We will be outdoors the majority of the day.
Bring a hat, sunglasses and sunscreen. If rain is forecasted, bring a poncho or rain jacket.
Please dress respectfully. Avoid overly revealing, tattered or offensive apparel. Please refrain from wearing merchandise supporting competing teams and/or drivers.
Closed-toe, comfortable shoes are highly encouraged given the amount of walking and ground hazards at the track.
