I have never been to Kokomo speedway, just wondering where to sit. Planning on going to the Sprintweek race.

There isn't a bad seat in the house, so it comes down to your preference. We sit on front stretch on the top row just outside turn 4.

Seats on the back stretch face east and not into the sun. Plus you can see the cars rolling from pits to track. But really, all seats are good at Kokomo.
The RV camping is somewhat limited during Sprint Week (lots of campers!), so I would advise to roll in early. There are no hookups for elec. Or H2o.

Any grandstand seat is good. I like to sit up high just to the left of the flagstand towards turn 4. That wall out of 4 comes up pretty quick and it's fun watching the cars go down the frontstretch. Get an aisle spot if you plan to make any trips out during the night.


I have never sat on the backstretch but i was wondering where you park to sit back there?

There is a little parking lot back behind the backstretch stands.

You drive behind turns 3 and 4 to get there

There is a parking area for backstretch seating past turn 3. I parked back there once during Sprint Week and spent about an hour and a half getting out to the street. But the racing was good!!

Same experience last year leaving the backstretch stands. I believe we left right away and still sat there for a long time. As with all sprint week races anymore, better get there early if you want to sit very high.

The Turn 1 end of the frontstretch grandstands is the family section (no alcohol). The pit area starts at the end of this section and you can see the cars coming off the track.

Is there a good place to eat a pizza or a breaded tenderloin in Kokomo?
I am betting there is.
Hopefully we can get in some duckpin bowling while in Indianapolis.
