What a great tour! Glade was our tour guide. He was awesome. Very friendly and informative. He took us around in a Chevy Camaro(should have been a Ford. lol) The gift shop was pretty disappointing. The merchandise seemed dated and old. Nothing really caught our eye in there. Overall it was a great tour.

The lights attracting is a little underwhelming. Nice short drive for family. The longest drive is around the speedway if you miss the entrance.

We came here on New Year's Day to check out the gift of lights and I heard that there would be more lights this year than previous years. I recommend bringing your own snacks as the popcorn/drinks are overpriced. The staff are friendly and are helpful with showing you where to go. I got a ticket on Groupon for $21, so I recommend going there. The gift of lights took about 15-20 minutes when taking time to examine the light displays. I liked the entrance, the Christmas stars, angels and the arching displays of flowers and butterflies. The experience was underwhelming and pricey for the experience, however it's something to check out if you are in the area.

I've toured other sports arenas in the past so I had to add a NASCAR racetrack to the list. This had to be one of the most unique and exciting tours I've experienced. The tour starts off with viewing the track from the club seats and learning about the other structures on the premise. I didn't expect that the better seats were more towards the top than the bottom. The reason is that all of the fumes and debris from the cars are at the bottom. Next stop was the ballroom. The tour guide told us about events that were held here during race days and his experience at them. The last part of the tour was two laps around the track as a passenger. The tour guide (who has raced cars in the past) drives you around the track at speeds well above what you would experience on the highway. Here you can feel a fraction of the g-force that the race car drivers feel when taking those turns. After our laps we were able to look at some cars in the garage that were being prepared for a race the next day. The tour guide was excellent and very knowledgeable with a great sense of humor. The tour costs $15 and was well worth the value. The tour took me about an hour (with a tour group size of 4) but it can go up to two hours with a larger tour group size since everyone has to have their two laps around the track. Walk-ins are available but I'd recommend calling in advance to reserve your spot.

Another great Speedway Motorsports track. Good viewing and everyone treats us like family. Complex is BIG! Easy access and parking. Greeting racing action and fan area. Suites are comfy and the caterers are super attentive.

My review is for the Gift of Lights 2022.I found my tickets on Groupon for $20. The lights last about 20-30 minutes depending on how fast you go through. We took our time and turned on our own Christmas music playlist (there's no music playing outside and no radio station to tune into like other light shows around). We even made our own hot cocoa to sip since we knew there was no Santa Village this year.We enjoyed looking at the different light themes and cruising through the tunnels, I just was surprised there was not music! But I'm thankful we found TMS because I wasn't able to pay $55 at Sugar Lane, they've got to be insane. I recommend seeing the lights if you get the $20 tickets otherwise you've spent too much, sorry to say. I would pay more if there were a Santa's village and more lights, definitely. Perhaps someone could relay this to the light decoration department for next year :)

My first time coming to this spot and my first time watching NASCAR. Everything was well thought out and organized! We drove inside the area and there were plenty of signs directing you on where to go for parking. This place is huge so I could have been lost lol!They have tents and vendors set up early in the morning before the gates opened. We walked around and played some of the games they had for free swag. Texas Lotto was there so we definitely had to try a scratch off.It was definitely fun and a great experience for our first NASCAR race.

This is for the Christmas lights event. I visited TMS in 2021 to see the Christmas lights, It was easy to follow directions to the entrance where it was held. I was able to purchase my ticket at the gate with no issue. I went on a Tuesday I believe and I did not run into any traffic nor was it busy at the event.The flow of cars while driving through the lights was very slow and chill. Trust you want to go slow so you can see all the lights displayed. The path of the lights takes you from outside the track, through the side of if, underneath the bleachers and under the main track towards the garages inside the pit. What I liked best was the lights that were displayed underneath he bleachers. It was darker in there compared to the outside and they stood out way more. This part did take us a bit of time to get through but I realize the reason why traffic was moving so slowly was that at the end of the bleacher area there was the light tunnel! The 'big finally' was the tunnel of Christmas lights that they build for cars to go through that take you to the infield into Santas village. I liked it but it could have been longer and packed with more lights. It was also at a slight downhill so you gotta have your feet on the brake just in case. After this part is over the path takes you underneath the race track into the pits where Santas village is.Santas village has concessions where you can purchase hot chocolate, cookies, cotton candy etc. They also had small local vendors selling different types of merchandise and that was cute. There was also a stock car in the garage (roped off of course) so people could take their pictures with it. Along with that they had different holiday decorations you can take cute pictures in. I believe there was also an option to take pictures with santa for an additional price. After you got done doing that there was nothing else left to do except go home. While we were down in the pits we did see someone dressed as the Grinch so that was fun. I wish they would put Santa's village either at the beginning or in the middle of the drive instead of at the end. Having hot chocolate and cookies while looking at the Christmas lights would be a better idea instead of eating them at the end when there are no lights. Also, please go to the bathroom before you start your driving experience as they don't have any at the main gate; you will have to wait all the way till the end. Also the bathrooms available were not the cleanest or well stock and that is minus one star. The price for admission was reasonable, I think I paid $25 so very happy. If you have never been I recommend going at least once when is not busy because I drove by this place closer to Christmas and it looks like a traffic nightmare.

Called before coming up and was told we can bring in bag less than 18 inch and water and snacks. We brought a soft sided bag with bottle water and some pretzels and was told no it is not allowed at the gate!!! We also had to pay $25 plus tax to park when our tickets and web said it included free parking. Not enough food options and when it is 100+ degrees out bottle water should be allowed. Don't think we will visit again, we will drive a little farther and go someplace else.
