Facility Overview
Situated along South Perimeter Road on the grounds of the famed motorsport and event complex in Fontana, California (ZIP 92335), the S Perimeter Rd Parking facility provides extensive open-air parking designed to handle high volumes of passenger vehicles, oversized transport, and event traffic. Because this is a wide, surface-level lot rather than an enclosed garage structure, there are no restrictive overhead height clearances to navigate. This makes the location exceptionally well-suited for high-profile vehicles such as lifted pickup trucks, full-size SUVs, commercial utility vans, and RVs that typically struggle with traditional parking deck clearances.
Prime Location & Nearby Attractions
This parking area sits directly within the iconic Auto Club Speedway precinct and Fontana\'s bustling commercial and industrial logistics sector. Depending on current event programming, it serves as a critical access point for motorsport exhibitions, automotive festivals, large-scale outdoor concerts, and driving experiences. The facility is also conveniently situated near:
- Auto Club Speedway Grounds: Direct access to speedway paddocks, hospitality areas, and trackside exhibition facilities.
- Kaiser & Slover Industrial Corridors: Situated within minutes of major regional distribution hubs, manufacturing centers, and commercial parks.

Access, Navigation & Transit Connectivity
Arriving at S Perimeter Rd Parking is straightforward due to its position near major Inland Empire transportation arteries. The facility enjoys direct roadway connections to Interstate 10 (San Bernardino Freeway) via Cherry Avenue or Citrus Avenue exits, as well as rapid north-south connectivity via Interstate 15. The open layout of South Perimeter Road allows for steady vehicle queues and efficient directional traffic flow during major ingress and egress periods. While the immediate speedway grounds are vehicle-centric, regional travelers can connect to transit via the Fontana Metrolink Station (San Bernardino Line) or Omnitrans regional bus routes servicing nearby arterials.

Visitor & Driver Tips
When attending major spectator events, driving schools, or conventions, plan to arrive at least 45 to 60 minutes ahead of scheduled start times to avoid traffic compression on Cherry Avenue and South Perimeter Road. Always take note of your lane or section marker upon leaving your vehicle, as large open-air lots can look uniform when returning after dark. Keep an eye out for dynamic electronic message boards and traffic control marshals stationed along the perimeter to direct you into the most efficient open parking bay.
