We always liked renting a concrete "block" in turn 4 so we could be a little more comfy in our lawn chairs.

Anywhere near turn four your going to get dirty if not dusty. However the track has been a lot better since the new guy took over operations. that entire Usac 50 lapper last year in July never took rubberr and the Blue Collar Bash the track was good

I usually sit turn one side of the flagstand. The new bleachers under the roof are big and comfy as well.

The reserved Patio seats under the roof are excellent!

Reserved patio seat. Years ago as a fan uninitiated to wing racing we sat in turn 4 for an All Star race. After some watering and track work they started the feature. My wife and young son were with me and when the cars entered turn 4 it was like someone was throwing shovels of dirt on us. It was a long time before I could get my wife to go to a race again. My son and I were laughing, now he is an adult fan.

If it's cold you'll want to be in the main grandstand under the roof. The roof holds some heat in. As with most any track you'll want to be as high as possible and this also holds true for Eldora, especially under the roof.

In warm weather the turn 4 or turn 1 lawn chair area is good. For the big shows those areas are fill up.
