Park on the west side of the track-don't go in the front gate to park because they will park you on the east side of the track and you will have to walk 2 miles to the Stock and Super Stock pits. Stock and Super Stock has always pitted on the west side of the track and you can park accross the street in the parking lot next to the campground. Make sure to take plenty of water to keep you hydrated because it is always hot there. We have also stayed at some of the motels on michigan road rt 421at I-465 and it is an easy drive and good area. We usually bypass going down Clermont road (North side of the track)on Friday and later because it gets to be a big traffic jam and use the roads on the south side to get there. Get there early on Thursday and Friday (8 A.M.) if you don't want to miss anything because that is when they start class eliminations.

Turn right and the track will be in front of you. It is 4-lane most of the way with minimal stop lights.

Do what I do ....infringe on friends who live there

Actually I agree with this post. We normally pick up crew that stay off this ext on the way to the track. We normally park and enter from the rear of track.
