Jeff Gordon heading to driver introductions
at the Auto Club 400, March 2015.

One of my favorite things to do when camping at NASCAR is to "GO TO THE PITS" with a
pre-race pit pass. I like to see what kind of cool
pictures I can get of the cars or drivers as they walk by.

If you have never taken the time, I highly recommend (at least once) you purchase a pit pass and check out the action for yourself. It offers a different perspective on the work that goes into preparing each car getting ready for qualifying, practices and the races.

A lot has been said over different media outlets regarding Jeff Gordon's last year in NASCAR. Whether you love him or hate him, his race accomplishments, championships and charitable contributions speak for themselves.

Each track this year have given him some nice "retirement" gifts and special tributes in honor of his racing at their facilities for many years.

Bottom line, this could be the last chance to get those Jeff Gordon pictures or autographs you may have always wanted while he's still wearing his fire suit and racing the 24 car. Contact your local track to find out if they are offering any pit pass purchase incentives or other deals.
