Lincoln Park has parking on both the front and back part of the track, with camper parking on the front. I always arrive early and park in the back and sit in the pit grandstands at Lincoln Park because they have an excellent view of the track and they are in the pits near the back straight. You can also go back into the pits any time you want. A good concession stand and decent restrooms are right back of them. A downside is that the speakers in the pit grandstands are hard to hear and at least one of them doesn't work at all, but I am told that the speakers on the front are no prize either. The main grandstand is on the front straight. If you park on the front and go to the pits, you walk down a fairly long, steep hill. Obviously you have walk up it to get back to the front. The pit at Bloomington is on the back also, but the view from the pit stands really is not very good. They sit low in relation to the track and the lights from the front stretch are right in your eyes, making it even harder to see. If you are going to go to the pits at only one, I would make it Lincoln Park and park in the back and sit in the pit grandstands.
