Going to MIS this Sunday! Best route- easy 10 pts.?

Question

For some reason "ask" is missing, and only "add details" is here?? Anyway, I am close to Detroit and am going for the Sprint race and have pit passes. What's the best route in and what time should I leave?

Answer 1

Do NOT go the way the above poster said.  Traffic is awful and it can take 2-3 hours to get from Saline to Brooklyn.

Go this way:

Take 94 west.  

Get off at exit 153 (Clear Lake Rd.)

Turn left, taking Clear Lake to Michigan Rd

Turn right on Michigan and go to Norvell Rd.

Turn left on Norvell Rd. at the dealership and go to Austin Rd

Turn right onto Austin Rd. and go to M-60

Turn left on M-50 that will lead you straight to MIS.

Traffic is MUCH better this way!!

Answer 2

What Jaynarie said.lived within twenty miles of MIS for 14 years-that's the way we went. Many times we would leave MIS after the race and go South to US-12, go either way just to get out.

Answer 3

I am going...Wa-Hoo!!!!!!  Can't even wait.  If you have never been before you will want to leave early so you have time to see everything.  The place is HUGE.   We leave around 5am.  But we go out for breakfast first.  The gates at MIS open at 8:00.  The parking lots opens at 7:00.  Best way to get directions is just go to the MIS website they have all the maps you need.  They are important to see because they direct traffic differently than on normal day.  In the morning most roads only lead into MIS, and same for leaving all the roads are one way at that is OUT.  It makes the traffic a lot more bearable.  They also did some big mulit-million dollar renovations for traffic last year and it was nice.  Usually takes me 4-5 hours to just get out of the parking lot and last year I was home in just a couple hours.  Another tip since you have Pit passes wait for a while before visiting Pit Road. If you get there to early then you don't get to see the cars.  They start rolling them out around Noon or so.  Pit Road is cool no matter what.  But wait for the cars it's way more exciting.

Have fun!  My seats are in Turn 4!!!!!  Right now the Weather is supposed to be 82 beautiful degrees!

>>Edit....I just checked and Bill Engvall (Blue Collar Comedy Tour) is the Grand Marshall on Suday.
