My first was the '94 Coca Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway. 4 things stood out to me at the time:
1. MUCH louder than I ever imagined it would be.
2. They drive incredibly fast.
3. They drive closer together than you can imagine.
4. I had never seen what 180,000 people in one place looked like. It's amazing.
It's just one of those sports that in person vs. on tv is completely different and has to be seen to believe.
