Families visit lights at Charlotte Motor Speedway ahead of holiday

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — With two days until Christmas, families are getting into the holiday spirit at Charlotte Motor Speedway.

There are more than 800 light displays starting at the Z-Max Dragway, and weaving through the super-speedway.
There's also a petting zoo, Santa's workshop and an ice rink.

Visitors there told us it's a great place to bring kids.

"You can actually get out and walk around with them, let 'em see everything," said visitor Darlene Wilms. "It gets you in the Christmas spirit."

The displays will be up until next Sunday.

Tickets are $20 per car between Thursday and Sunday and $15 Monday through Wednesday.
