CANOPY NEWS

​

Based on fan input, and striving to satisfy all of our spectators, we have decided to also allow a limited amount of canopies in a viewing section on the east side of the track, dubbed Canopy Chaos.  This is a first come, first served area, and you will not have as good of a view of the races as you would from the Reserved Canopy Area, but it is free. 

 

Just like our infamous Big Nasty Hillclimb (where some years we have sold close to 1,000 camping passes), we are also offering onsite camping at Ontario Speedway.  The camping area is about 200 yards from the racetrack and is covered with grass and mowed, green ground cover.  All parking is free and handicap and senior citizen camping is also now available, see map for location of handicapped camping area, and let us know if you are planning on camping there, near the bleachers. 

 

Food and beverage vendors will be onsite, and the Bargarita's Beer Garden will be located on the berm. NO outside food & drink in the fenced-in spectator area, although you may have these items in the camping and parking areas, of course.  You CAN consume your own food and beverages at the south end of the track, OUTSIDE of the fenced area.

 

Kids under the age of 5 can enjoy the event for free, kids 6-12 cost $10 for the entire weekend. Leashed dogs are allowed in the campground, but they are not permitted in the spectator area.  Onsite Helicopter rides will also be happening onsite all day Saturday and Sunday, just like we always did at the Big Nasty!

 

Lastly, we want to ensure the safety of all our attendees and the environment. Therefore, absolutely no campfires are allowed on the ground. Only gas-fired outdoor fire pits are permitted.

 

We look forward to seeing you at the event!
