I'm planning on going to that one too.   I went to the All Star race this past June, and I would expect the crowd to be similar.   If you sit down towards turn 4 where the stands are much bigger, then distancing shouldn't be a problem.  The further you go down towards the end of the stands the more room you'll have.   Your plan to go to the bathroom during the mods is valid, and thankfully that bathroom is large.   I can tell you not to expect social distancing at the concession lines though.   They'll be stacked deep at times, and people won't be distancing at all.     At the All Star show I actually bought a pit pass since it was only a little more expensive.   I watched time trials from the front straight wall.    I watched the heats from the turn 2 stands in the pits.   I left when it got crowded though, and right after someone sat down about 3 feet away from me.   I proceeded to the stands after that.

For $5 more the pit pass idea is a great one.   I never considered it before. Especially since its all general admission seating.

I am notoriously early to the races and a pit walk would kill some of the time before things start.

Thanks for the idea.

I would add that the infield concession stand won't be crowded either.   The main concession stand line was backed up nearly to the entrance gate.   When I got to the infield that concession stand had nobody there, so no time waiting in line.

Monster crowd at Devils Bowl last night, not sure I have seen that many people since the first night they came back to the track.

Yes, that was larger than the All Star crowd back in June.   I wound up not being able to go, or else I was going to have to go very late.   On DirtVision it looked like there was still a little room in the last section in turn 4 from what I could see on the their drone footage.

Huge crowd that stood in lines way too much (Pit Pass and the Funnel Cake stand.) Usually get a good night one with a rubber down night two, so good on the Edwards' to move Friday night to Lawton, which was also a packed house. Wish we could get this weekend in before the ASCoC splits off in the future.

Good to see big crowds for 410 sprints in OK and TX. I think there's a ton of history there and seems like an area that could have more races. I know this issues with car counts but just seems to be a lot of fan interest in that area.
