I would like to go to a NASCAR race, but have so many concerns
1. The cost, few grand I'd say (family of five to take)
2. What tickets would I end up (bad view on turn 3 probs)
3. How welcome are us Brits people in the American Stands, do we stick out like a sore thumb (please note, I luv America)
4. If I was going, I would like to see two races, including a plate race, where in the schedule would allow two races close together so I'm not driving miles and miles between weekends.
5. Otherwise, do people, companies organise visits.
Doh.- :spinhead: Oh he turned him !!!

I've been to some races and us Brits are as welcome as anyone else. No concerns at all there! If anything, they'll want to hear you talk just to listen to the accent.

I wish, but I can't afford. I'll make do with SCSA for another year.
Really wanted to see the current spec cars before the COT comes in full time, but I don't think it will happen.

I'm English and I went to Daytona 500 last year and this year and it was great, NASCAR fans are don't care where you're from- everyone is at the track to watch the racing and support their favourite drivers
Some of the lower seats at Daytona have a limited view but you can always check how good or bad the seat is by booking through racetickets.com- they have a 3D map of the tracks so you can see where the seat is
I'd love to go again this year but I'm not sure the finances will allow me to do so- unless the COT is a disaster on the plate tracks I'll be out there again for the 2008 Daytona 500
