Got the wife to drop me off. Looked like a gong show trying to get in. The people in front of me didn’t get in till 410 it was over at 5.

Took the train home and someone decided to fall off the platform at heritage so that was a 30 min wait. So whether you drove or took the train it sucked.

Bring ear plugs, it’s loud. Doesn’t bother me but for the kids for sure. Lineups for food and drink were to long but you can bring your own food and pop. Just no beers, beer line wasn’t to bad though.

What time did you get there before start?
Tomorrow starts at 3pm and I don't want to fuck that up.

Go early. Traffic to get in is dumb....like aim to be there for 2. We got there just after 2 and the races started while I was in the beer line. After I got food for the fam....unless you train it, then I do t think it would be too bad. After we got parcked, it was quick.
Edit 2: when I say got there around 2, I mean in the car waiting to get parked

See edit.....it should be ok if you train it

I think the train will be safe aim to be there at 230. Wife dropped me off at 230 and we walked in. If I parked I would park along cemetery hill and walk in at 215. No one was parked there when we drove by.
My boys wanted a train ride other wise I would have drove. Do not park in the grounds waste of time.

Went today with my son. I got the pit party passes so we got there at 1245 and parking wasn’t too bad being almost right in front of the entrance. We left about 10 min before it ended to beat the rush and it was super smooth leaving. Pretty much drove straight out with no wait.

Bro - did you just win the award for the whitest non-white person in Calgary?!
There are stacks of evidence to suggest that you are certainly not a pasty white guy (*cough @schurchill39 ) and may in fact be partially Middle Eastern, non?
I get a full chubby when I hear about Iranian or Lebanese people going to NASCAR or Monster Trucks shit like this. I fuckin love it.
Respek, Habibi!

You're spittin' facts.

[sabad66]

Lol yeah we are very white washed Lebanese. Kiddo had fun at the pit party. Even got his shiny new overpriced grave digger toy signed by the driver



But yeah def go early. I ran into someone there that showed up at 3 and didn’t get in til halfway intermission

[ThePenIsMightier]

This was awesome and paying extra for infield seats was totally worth it. I don't see how there could be better seats than where we ended up The extra $70 for a t-shirt, hat and programme, was a bit of BS.

My Vishnu, do kids ever love this. Absolutely vibrating with excitement and completely freaking the fuck out over the strangest things during the show. Which is pretty fuckin cool.

And the event was pretty awesome. I would definitely go again. It was far better than I expected. Dirt bike jumping during intermission was also a fantastic add.

Weird. Sometimes there's a glitch and it turns into a swampy whore.

Always good to see some carnage.



The balance on the front two wheels was impressive.
