Improving access to concessions and bathroom facilities should be a no-brainer. Hire more staff for the day and bring in portable facilities - GP does this for Florida Derby day - They have trailers which are not porta-johns, but actual bathroom facilities with sinks and fans and whatnot.

You can't teach common sense.
There are plenty of issues leaving NASCAR races (Kentucky from a couple years ago comes to mind). But people also camp out and drink more beer after the typical NASCAR race, so there's that.
