Bristol, TN — Bristol Motor Speedway Attendance: 91.77 percent, Speed Record: 101.075 mph, Most Cautions: 20, Expert Ranking: 3rd 6 NASCAR may draw fans to Bristol, TN twice a year for a pair of Sprint Cup races, but this city of 26,675 offers up some reasons to explore beyond the track. First and foremost, Bristol is officially credited (by the U.S. Congress, no less) as being the birthplace of country music, something you can learn about at the Bristol Historical Association and the forthcoming Birthplace of Country Music Museum opening in August 2014. Bristol’s main drag, State Street, literally divides two states: Tennessee and Virginia. It’s where you’ll find places like 620 State, an Asian fusion restaurant with an extensive sushi menu and live music. Live tunes are also part of the ambiance at Machiavelli’s, a pizzeria known for its homemade style pizza pies.
