CREDENTIALS: Please note, the credential location sits outside the service tunnel at the entrance of Turn 3. You must follow the specific directions provided to reach the credential building or risk being routed into a general parking lot. Once you receive a parking pass, you may drive anywhere on property, but your parking pass must be affixed to your windshield. See map at this link http://www.atlantamotorspeedway.com/media/credentials/.

EXITING THE INFIELD AFTER THE RACE: Please note, the tunnel will be closed for one hour from the drop of the checkered flag on Sunday. This will not affect most media as it takes almost that long for the winning driver to come to the media center for post-race quotes, but should you need to get out sooner, please let me know.

ATTENTION: For media wanting to travel north on Highways 19/41 following the race, if you turn right out of the tunnel, you will be routed on back roads to Fayetteville. To head north, turn left when leaving the tunnel to Lower Woolsey Rd, continue to Highway 20 and proceed to I-75 N. To return to Highways 19/41, proceed past Highway 20 and turn left at Highway 19/41 on the southeast side of the speedway.

INTERNET CONNECTIONS: Both hi-speed and wireless internet connections will be available this weekend in the media center for those who will be working out of the deadline room. For those in media overflow, there is wireless connectivity.
