Rich, we've been out to The PAS 4 times since 2002, the most recent was the 2012 Turkey Night Grand Prix. You're gonna' love this place!
When we were at the Ovals a few years ago we stayed at the Hampton in Temecula. Temecula is only a 1/2 hour up the 215 to Ramona Expr. Other times we've been to The PAS we've stayed in Hemet, Riverside and Ontario (we flew into ONT and it was easy to get the rental car back). By far Temecula was the best experience for us. Riverside and Ontario were just okay but stay away from Hemet.
In regards to seating, if your 1/2 way up or higher in the grandstands anywhere on the front straightaway you'll have good sight lines all around the track.
The parking fee is what it is and California is, after all, California, but if there is a weather postponement the fairgrounds will hit you the full price for parking, again, even though you might have a parking card or admittance rain check from the rain-out. This happened to us the second time we were at the Ovals and the rain date was the next night! But again, it is what it is and they get away with it.
Your gonna' love the PA system they have at The PAS and Scott is one of the best announcers we've ever heard at a racetrack.
Hope you have good weather and a GREAT time.
