AT THE RACE COURSE

To make the most of your race weekend, here are some practical tips to help you stay relaxed, prepared, and focused on the excitement.

Food and drink

You won’t go hungry during the Anduril 250 Race, the Base NASCAR Street Race. A wide variety of food and beverage vendors will be available throughout the venue, offering everything from classic race-day bites to international flavors. Expect favourites like burgers, fries, and sandwiches alongside lighter and specialty options — there’s something for everyone.

Plenty of drink stands will also be available to keep you refreshed throughout the day, with water refill stations conveniently located around fan zones and concourse areas.

Communications

Before heading to the track, it’s a good idea to save key event information directly to your phone — including your digital tickets, maps, and race schedule. Mobile networks can become busy during large events, which may make loading web pages or messages slower than usual.

If you’re attending with friends or family, set up a meeting point and time in advance. It’s a simple way to stay connected even if a phone signal drops or your group gets separated.

Noise

The thrilling roar of NASCAR engines is part of what makes the event so special — but it can also get loud, especially close to the track. To stay comfortable, bring earplugs or noise-reducing headphones. Families with young children are strongly encouraged to use proper ear protection like earmuffs designed for loud environments.

Weather

San Diego in June typically offers warm and sunny weather, with daytime temperatures often ranging between 22°C and 28°C (72°F–82°F). It’s wise to apply sunscreen regularly and wear a hat and sunglasses to stay protected from the sun.

Since conditions near the coast can change quickly, check a reliable forecast in the days leading up to the race. The Windy app or similar weather tools are great for real-time updates on temperature, wind, and any potential rain, so you can plan accordingly.
