Hillside parking is located in turn #1. I don't think they charge extra but since it is a big race I would get there very early. They tend to go fast and you don't want to miss out on that view.:19::3:

Is it a good view on the hillside? Just wondering where the best seats are?

No extra fee, need to get here early on regular shows the line starts around 8 a.m., hill parking is on first come basis. if you go to www.Paragonspeedway.com and click on Our Facility the area off turn 1 where the hillside parking is.

yes, have an area that is high and dry for you.

Are they running all the support classes or just the street stocks?

I personally have never been in that area. I arrive slightly later and it is full by then. Really not a bad seat in the house. The old wooden bench type seats aren't very comfortable so we take lawn chairs and sit between the rows. Most other folks do the same. Also bring along the sunglasses as you will be looking toward the West and the setting sun.

Can't wait for this race. I want to thank Keith Ford for helping arrange this show to honor Chuck. This was one of his favorite tracks and it still holds alot of wonderful memories for all of us. Please come out and support us and come by the trailer and say hello. Plenty of "Chuck Amati" tee shirts for sale also. Special thanks to Shane Wade for all the time and effort putting this very special event together. Can't wait to see you all.

I went on the website and looked at the overhead picture but it's hard to tell how much room the turn 1 hillside has. Looks small, or is that just deceiving? What is that circle type road just outside of turn 2?

Keith Ford is the one you should give the credit to, not me. I have only played a support role in this race. It is Keith and the MSCS that will make this a great event. I am looking forward to a great night of racing and couldn't think of a better place to honor my grandpa.

Outside of turn two is part of the pits. The only seating is on the front stretch.

That is how old Chuck was when he passed. A lap to celebrate each year of his life.

this is awesome they are honoring a true racer like chuck! i remember as a 10 year old rooting my uncle danny bowlen on @ paragon racing against rex mitchel bob kinser and all the top locals back in the day. when the big shows came around and the bandit showed, he was the man to beat!!! as i got i older i was @ west memphis with randy kinser and had the honor of meeting him. he was just as awesome off the track as he was on it! thanks chuck for the memories....
