First time coming to ISW for Terre Haute, Putnamville, and Bloomington. My son and I will be coming in our pick up and a camper. Just trying to figure out how the camping works. Is there a cost to camp at these tracks or do they even allow it? Also can you bring in any coolers to any of the 3? Any help would be great!!!

Coolers full of beer or any other plastic are allowed in the infield of terre haute legal in btowns stands and also haubstadt. Although I think there is a size restriction at tri state. Pville is a no but you can park close enough to the gate that a short walk during stock cars is no problem

Here is some information on the 4 remaining tracks. Be advised that I haven't had an RV for a couple of years but I think the procedures are about the same.
THAT: They have limited area with hookups. They might all be reserved. Not much in the way of shade unless you park under the roofed area. 20 amp and water sites (no sewer) have a charge. Don't know what the current charge is. Huge area available for dry camping normally without charge. The only time I paid for one of these was during the local county fair. It will be over when you get there. Reserved RV parking area is reasonably close to the stands. Open parking might require walking a distance equivalent to a couple of city blocks to the stands..or infield if you prefer. LPS: Fair sized parking area, all dry camping. The parking area and stands sit at the top of a hill regardless of how you enter. There are a couple of entrances. The one furthest west is a bit rough on RVs and can produce serious wheel hop for some. I'd advise using the east entrance leading to the pits and turn left before the pit gate. Go up the hill and continue past the stands to the RV parking area. They have signs indicating the appropriate area. No charge. Bloomington: Huge area. They advise you to park at the tree line surrounding the parking area and to back up to the tree line. No hookups and no charge. TSS: If you arrive early you might find a spot near the backstretch stands. Otherwise, continue past the stands to a HUGE field and park close to the tree line. No hookups/No charge. There is a pond in the area. They advise you to stay away from it. Be a considerate camper and pick up and bag your trash. Some tracks may allow fires/others not. It will be noisy after the race as some parties run to near daybreak or when the participants pass out. If possible, avoid running over any bodies when you leave. |
