I was going to suggest the mall too - we parked there multiple times - easier to get out too.
I went to several 500's & Pepsi 400's back in the late 90's early 2000's & we were at the end of the front stretch close to turn 1 when Bodine had his wreck in the truck race. I still get chills when I think about it.
I found the daytime races were easier to watch than the night races - for the night races you couldn't tell the cars apart on the back stretch like you could at a daytime race. Good idea on the fan experience although I'm not sure I would bother with it a second time. We had all access (care of Pepsi-co) for one of the 400's & got to roam around in the pits at will - pretty cool! You'll be amazed at how steep the track is - you can read about it and watch it on TV but to walk it will amaze you!
Have fun - all of you!
