RV Rental for NASCAR All-Star Race in Concord, NC
Every May, once the All-Star Race date hits the schedule at Charlotte Motor Speedway, I start getting the same calls — folks coming in from out of state who just landed at Concord-Padgett (JQF) or Charlotte Douglas and don’t want to fight Bruton Smith Boulevard traffic twice a day from a hotel. An RV rental for the NASCAR All-Star Race puts you right where the action is, and I deliver and set the rig up before you ever turn into the gate. I’m the local Fireside RV Rental owner here in Concord, and I run rigs onto Speedway property all week during race weekends.
Why an RV Beats a Hotel for All-Star Weekend
The hotels along Concord Mills Boulevard and out toward I-85 fill up fast for any Speedway weekend, and the All-Star Race is no exception — rates jump and the closest rooms sell out early. The bigger problem is the parking shuffle. If you stay off-site, you’re parking, walking, shuttling, and doing it all over again after the checkered flag with everyone else trying to merge back onto US-29. When you camp on Speedway property, you walk to the grandstands and walk back to your own kitchen, your own bathroom, and your own bed. For a multi-day weekend with qualifying, the Open, and the All-Star Race itself, that convenience is the whole point.
Where you’ll actually park
Charlotte Motor Speedway runs its own camping operation with everything from rough fan lots to hookup sites in the infield and surrounding fields. The Speedway handles those reservations directly, so you’ll want to secure your camping spot through them and let me know which lot you landed — that tells me how to size your rig and how to plan the drop. A few honest notes from doing this every season:
- Infield and premium lots run tight and the lanes get crowded fast on race day. I’ll match you to a trailer or motorhome that fits the footprint you booked rather than something that’s a headache to wedge in.
- General fan camping fields are more forgiving on size but often dry (no hookups), so I’ll talk you through fresh water, generator, and gray/black tank capacity before the weekend.
- If you’d rather have full hookups and a quieter base, places like Frank Liske Park in Concord or Carolina Pines RV Resort down in the Fort Mill area are options — but for race weekend, on-property camping is what most of my customers want.

NASCAR All-Star RV Delivery — How It Works
Here’s the part that makes this easy: you don’t have to tow anything or learn to back a trailer into a packed lot. I handle NASCAR All-Star RV delivery straight to your camping spot at Charlotte Motor Speedway. I drop the rig, level it, get you connected to whatever your site offers, and walk you through everything before I leave. After the weekend, I come back and haul it out — you just lock up and head home.
Because I deliver around Concord and the Speedway every week, I know the gate timing, the credential and parking-pass headaches, and which loops get blocked off when. That local knowledge is the difference between a smooth setup and sitting in a line of trucks at the wrong gate.

What’s included with the rental
Inclusions like linens, kitchen gear, generators, and outdoor setup vary by unit and by what your site supports, so I’d rather give you a straight answer than guess. Tell me your camping spot and your group size and I’ll spell out exactly what comes with your rig and what you’ll want to bring. Reach me at 704-218-9311 or [email protected].
Weather and What to Pack for May at the Speedway
All-Star weekend lands in mid-to-late May, and Piedmont May weather can swing on you. Daytimes run warm and humid — easily into the 80s — and afternoon thunderstorms pop up out of nowhere, then clear off. That’s exactly why a delivered RV beats a tent here: when a storm rolls through during the Open or before the main event, you’ve got AC, a dry place to wait it out, and a real bathroom. I always tell folks to pack for hot sun and at least one quick downpour, and to keep the awning situation simple so a gust doesn’t catch you off guard.
Book Early — All-Star Weekend Goes Fast
My race-weekend rigs go first. Between the All-Star Race, the Coca-Cola 600 weekend that follows, and everything else that hits the Speedway in spring, my delivery calendar tightens up early. If you already have a camping spot confirmed with Charlotte Motor Speedway, lock in your Speedway All-Star weekend RV as soon as you can. Call or text me at 704-218-9311 or email [email protected] and I’ll get you set.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you deliver the RV right to the Speedway camping lots?
Yes. I deliver to your reserved camping spot at Charlotte Motor Speedway, level and set up the rig, connect you to whatever your site offers, and come back to remove it after the race weekend. You book your camping spot through the Speedway, then send me the lot details so I can plan the drop.
I don’t have a camping spot yet — can you still help?
The Speedway manages its own race-weekend camping reservations, so you’ll want to secure that directly with them. If on-property camping is full, I can talk you through full-hookup options nearby like Frank Liske Park in Concord or Carolina Pines in the Fort Mill area. Call me and I’ll point you the right way.
How far ahead should I book for the All-Star Race?
As early as you can. Mid-May is peak Speedway season around Concord, and my delivery rigs for that window fill up well in advance. Once you have your camping spot confirmed, reach out and we’ll lock in your dates.
What size RV should I rent for my group?
It depends on your group size and the camping spot you booked — infield and premium lots run tighter than the general fan fields. Tell me both and I’ll match you to a rig that fits the space and sleeps everyone comfortably. That’s the part I handle best after years of dropping rigs at this Speedway.
Own an RV yourself? If your rig spends most of the year parked between trips, it doesn’t have to sit idle — a RV rental management company can rent it out and handle the bookings, cleaning, and logistics so you earn from it without the hassle.
