The August race at Bristol Motor Speedway is the toughest ticket to get in all of NASCAR and there is a reason for that. The tight high-banked half-mile concrete oval is pure racing excitement.The high speeds and close quarters makes for a lot of pushing and shoving on the track, and sometimes in the pits. Adrenaline (and tempers) run high as often the only way to pass is to shove the guy in front of you out of the way.
If you've never been to Bristol you simply have to see it in person at least once in your life. There's nothing else like it.
