Out-of-town guests are welcome to camp in up to 50 campsites in the main parking area and over 150 sites across from the speedway back-chute. Please call to make camping reservations for the parking lot at: 740.289.4114. KC Raceway would like to avoid some of the random placement of campers in the parking area. Therefore fans are urged to register a legitimate spot on raceway grounds. Much of that problem hopes to be avoided with good weather.
Many area hotels have already filled up. Other area motels listed on the DTWC and KC Raceway websites still have some rooms available and also others within a 35-mile radius of the track. Reserved seating sales have been booming and all indications are that a full house and one of the biggest fields in DTWC racing history will be on hand.
Camping is allotted on a first-come, first-serve basis with 50 spots in the main area and several hundred in the adjacent field. All camping is primitive and there is no need to call to make reservations. Campers are asked to conserve space and clean up after themselves by bagging trash and observing the rights of other campers.
K-C Raceway has also constructed an all-new playground in addition to other attractions for kids and adults of all ages
A new policy regarding four-wheelers has also been instituted. There will be no four-wheelers permitted in the pits except for those with race teams. No ATV’s are permitted in the camping area. However, golf carts are permitted. A five-mile per hour speed limit will be enforced to ensure the safety of all fans.
