Avondale: The West Valley's Big-Event Playground
Tucked at the base of the Estrella Mountains, Avondale is home to one of motorsports' most iconic stops — Phoenix Raceway — plus a historic downtown, easygoing breweries, and quick access to Westgate's restaurants and nightlife.
It's a town built for group days out, and the only thing that can slow it down is logistics. That's where Jacob Transportation comes in.
Whether you're chasing race-day adrenaline or a laid-back West Valley afternoon, we make the travel effortless and elevated.
Race Weekend, Done in Style
Phoenix Raceway's one-mile, low-banked tri-oval hosts two NASCAR Cup Series weekends a year, with the fall playoff race — the Freeway Insurance 500 — set for Sunday, October 18, 2026. Race weekends mean massive crowds, a sea of campers, and parking that fills early.
A private party bus changes the whole equation. We handle the traffic on the Loop 303 and I-10 while your group settles in, and we drop you close to the gates instead of a far-flung lot.
- Skip the parking marathon — curbside drop-off and a guaranteed pickup spot.
- Tailgate on board with sound, cold drinks, and seating for the whole crew.
- No designated driver — everyone enjoys the day equally.
- One ride for the group, even if you're coming from Scottsdale, Chandler, or out of state.
Beyond the Track: A Full Avondale Day
Avondale rewards groups who linger. Start in the historic downtown corridor, where independent shops and murals line the streets, then settle in at a local taproom or one of the brewery's patios.
For the thrill-seekers, the Richard Petty Driving Experience puts your group behind the wheel — or shotgun — for high-speed laps at the raceway itself. Cap the day at the nearby Westgate Entertainment District for dinner and drinks before we carry everyone home.

- Race-day crews turning a NASCAR weekend into a full Valley adventure.
