Bristol Dragway Tickets

This trip was on my list of things to do. It did not disappoint. You could feel the shaking in the stands as the drag racing machines ran the track. Then just when you feel it could not be any better .... The fuel cars take their first runs. The air is heavy ... the engines start up, the lights are lit on the tree ..... The machines come alive.The Tree lights turn Green and the race is on! They fly down the lanes and fire shoots out of the sides of the beasts. the air is stirred by the vibrations of the race. The hair on my arm stands on end and my breath is sucked in. Oh yes I had a blast!!!!

Was disappointed in the signage, or lack there of, to the FREE spectator parking lots. Drove past the road and had to turn around and go back. Got to lot L3 and noticed another sign that said L4. Went to the INFORMATION booth at bottom of the hill and asked if I had parked in L3 or L4. The young guy didn't have a clue what I was talking about, even though you could see the L3 sign on top of the hill. Although this was not my first trip to the dragstrip, was disappointed that the shuttle DID NOT take spectators to the TOP OF THE HILL where parking lot L3 and L4 were located. Many of the older people had trouble walking up the steep hill!!! On the way out of those parking lots after the session at 10PM, the traffic was delayed due to having to drive IN ONE LANE for miles parallel to HIghway 394 on a two lane road, with no one coming TO the track. This road should have been monitored by police and allow TWO lanes to leave the track to get on HIghway 394. The qualifying races on Friday night were AWESOME!! otherwise

We love going to Thunder Valley!!!! It is always a great trip!!!

There is nothing like this. Unless you see it in person, you can not sense how incredibly fast they are going. One great experience.

The Thunder Valley Nationals are a must see for all NHRA fans. The sound of those nitro machines echoes thru-out that valley. The grandstand shakes under your feet. The cars are there, at the christmas tree, and then they are gone at speeds near 325 mph and elapsed times around 3.775 seconds. If you have never been to an NHRA event make it a priority this year. You will not be disappointed. Every ticket is a pit pass and you can watch the crew build these cars between runs. The drivers are very friendly to all fans. You can talk to your favorite driver and even get pictures. This event is definitely a must see. TV does not do justice to drag racing. Just go once and you'll be hooked like we are. The area Motels were excellent also. We booked with Hotels.com the week of the race without any trouble. I hope this review will get you to thinking about going to an NHRA event.

First time at Thunder Valley. It is a great venue for NHRA, and customer service is top notch. An awesome day at the races in spite of the weather!

This is an awesome track and there isn't a bad seat in the place! Thunder Valley lived up to it's reputation! If you're an NHRA fan and haven't been to this track in person yet, it's a must see!!

We went Friday and Saturday and overall it was a great trip. The hospitality of the event staff was very good. The parking was close. Great seats with a great view. Wished this event was in the fall so that the cars would stick to the track better for more complete runs.

Overall event was amazing and would definetly do it agàin the two women that went was first time to a drag race they allready want to goto another

Spent the day with my Dad for Father's Day at Thunder Valley. It was a great day.

Great event - look forward to coming back! Ushers at the track need to check tickets and keep those that don't have a ticket, out of the section. They mainly stood under the bleachers out of the sun and answered or helped when asked. Had several groups through the course of the day come up, make us move and then leave....they obviously did not have tickets for the seats they were in....because the people changed during the course of the day.

The weather was dragster-like perfectly matching the professional organization and holding of an awesome event! You got me addicted to NHRA Mello Yellow! Thanks a lot for that incrediple experience! The long ride from Alabama really was worth it! Awesome value for the money!

This is without a doubt one of the best racing events you can see for the money. However, although it is expected to pay exorbitant prices on food & drink, paying $4 for a bottle of water is absurd. On a hot day, the all aluminum grandstands will cook you to well done. If any one noticed, fans were not just leaving the stands, but leaving the event. If you take your wife and 3 kids, that's $20 for a round of water. I understand that profit is essential to any business, but when you can purchase a case of water for $3, and then sell it for $96, don't you think this is really screwing the fans? Seeing that this is a summer event, don't you think the stands would be fuller if the fans did not have to cash in their retirement savings to stay hydrated? I don't know about you, but I can't see spending $50-$75 to stay hydrated during and event, and expect me to buy merchandise.

The day was exciting , the events were spaced with minimal delays. My wife had never been to a National event and she was also very thrilled with the speed and times it took to achieve them.It was hot in the bleachers but all anywhere near me were having a good time. I have worked on cars all my life obviously not at the level that raced Sunday but I find it amazing that the maintenance personnel and drivers are able to achieve what they do and the times to rebuild an engine. Being able to walk around and see the crews in action is a tremendous experience all in all a great Fathers Day for this Father.

I have been multiple times to the NHRA Thunder Valley Nationals, and it always seems to amaze me more and more. I absolutely love going and have always went since I was very young. I would recommend this event to anyone!

Surprised by the FREE parking and shuttle service.

Went there on Saturday. What a beautiful place. This was my wife's first experience at any track, so she had a ball. Our seats were great and we we able to see everything. Went down to the pits and got a chance to see John Force. That is my wife's favorite driver, not including the Force girls. My wife got an autograph and I got a picture with him. Everyone was very accessible. Awesome time. Thanks Bristol..

The event was more than expected. 90 degree weather was to much ffor us but otherwise very exciting.

My husband and I attend the NHRA in Bristol every year and we have never been disappointed. Everything was great, from the folks helping us find out seats to all of the food from the vendors. It's always great to get to walk around the pit area and be up close and personal to all of the drivers. We will definitely be going again next year.

Wish the track was cooler, so we could have seen better runs, but still the best spectator sport ever!
