We had only planned to stop and get pictures with the Earnhardt statue that is outside the museum... but Kate (the coupon collector she is) had a coupon for 5 bucks off of the museum... so, we decided to go it. I am glad we did. It is really awesome. We got a 30 minute tour of the track from the infield. The only time I have been in the infield of any track. There were some cars out doing the Petty Driving Experience... so we got to see some cars on the track, but no professional drivers...
Here are some pics of our time at the museum:
