I think butler speedway in Michigan has always allowed coolers. I-96 20 years ago or so stopped allowing coolers and I think it was part of them losing lots of fans at the time. The big track MIS banned coolers once and the fans raised so much H that an ordinance of some sort was passed to allow them back in. I personally would not let that be a factor going to a track. It sure is a luxury to bring your own food and drink though. But most of these short tracks rely on their concessions to help keep them open. With a medium-size crowd and a small car count, the track is lucky to break even when running these traveling clubs. $3 to $4 a beer is still a good deal compared to going to a stick and ball game or a concert. Not to mention the freedom of being able to move around to different viewing spots at a track.
