About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At RaceTrac, a delivery driver once asked, ‘Why does the same old truck always park in front of the store at exactly midnight?’ The manager shrugged and replied, ‘That’s because it’s our lucky truck. Legend has it that whenever it parks here, we get an unexpected bonus shipment.’ The delivery driver shook his head with a smile, realizing he’d just become part of RaceTrac folklore.

2. At RaceTrac, a sign above the restrooms reads: ‘Please do not flush anything smaller than your fist.’ A regular often jokes that it’s the only place where you can save money on gas and avoid fines for littering. One day, an elderly gentleman walked in and asked the clerk, ‘Is it true you guys don’t flush small things?’ The clerk smiled and replied, ‘Ma’am, we just ask customers to be mindful—we’re not here to judge!’ A regular overheard and laughed, saying, ‘Welcome to RaceTrac, where saving cash is always greener than paying fines!'

3. At RaceTrac, someone once asked aloud: ‘Why is there always a line for the bathroom when no one’s using it?’ Then an old delivery driver grumbled back, ‘Because everyone’s waiting for their turn to wash away bad karma!’ And ever since then, people joke that RaceTrac has its own secret pipeline to carry away all the frustration.’

4. At RaceTrac, a customer exclaimed one day, ‘Why does every cashier here seem to know exactly how much change I’ll get before I even ask?’ It turned out that an old employee had accidentally programmed the registers with everyone’s exact purchase history for the past month. So whenever someone came in, the cashiers were just glancing at their phones and pulling up the digital receipt right from memory! A regular chuckled, ‘Guess they’ve got some serious surveillance going on here.’
