Now here is a museum worthy of all ages and interest levels. I am a race fan but I tried to look at this place from a non biased point of view. So, if you don't like racing or science then this isn't your kind of place.
HOWEVER! If you're a normal average adult that tunes into discovery channel documentaries on random occasions and/or have kids at home then you need to come here.
Yea, the focus is obviously on the sport of NASCAR and its historic roots. But you will be amazed at how well put together this place is and if you think you'll be at a redneck convention you couldn't be more wrong. This facility is top notch, with architecture rivaling that of many modern museums. There are cars that will hark you back to fond memories in the rumble seat, and modern day models alike.
There are countless science exhibits and nearly everything here is interactive. I saw people of all ages doing all kinds of activities today and they were all fun. From a driving simulator, building your own virtual car and getting to test your setup, to learning how the cars are built and inspected.
You simply cannot go wrong. $20 gets you in, and a little more gets you unlimited sim rides and a lunch.
Worth it. Wear good shoes.
