Pensacola 200

The Pensacola 200 is an action-packed automotive event at Five Flags Speedway in Pensacola, Florida, near the border of Florida and Alabama by the Perdido River. Held over two days in March, it brings some of the best Menards series drivers to the state of Florida – all for the enjoyment and pleasure of petrol heads.

At least 20 drivers line up on the grid to carry out 200 laps of a half-mile paved track. Spectators are treated to a spectacular view of the racing from the grandstands, as well as a full evening of racing action on the second day.

Aside from some of the nation’s best drivers, visitors to the race also look forward to the opportunity to camp at Five Flags Speedway. You can park for the night, enjoy the fun environment, then set off the next day in search of fun things to do in Florida in a RV.
