Does anyone know when individual days go on sale for the Nationals? Right now you must still order for all four nights. I'll be there along with my brothers for all four, but I have one family member that can not be there until Thurs, and three more that can only make Fri. & Sat. Naturally, we would all like to sit together, but I don't want to pay for seven ticket nights I don't need. As it is, I'm fronting the money for 29 ticket/nights.

I believe it's usually May 1st. You can go to their website and e-mail the ticket office to find out for sure.

the last several years we have been able to get great seats, last year 10 together in late July, but Bill W or someone else is going to get on here and say but this is the 50 year and it will be bigger, but I have doubts have even heard many say the race might be a big snoozer at 50 laps, who knows, I would not worry and buy your seats mid summer, after all you can monitor the sells with the tickets site real easy

just looked over 14K tickets available today, think you have plenty of time to decide

May 1 is correct...

Bill W-

What is the Knoxville roster this year?

I'm sure that May 1 is much later than past years. I'm pretty sure I ordered tickets for individual days in Feb. last year, for sure the year before that. I think Cappy is trying to milk a few more dollars by delaying the date.

I guess I'll have to go ahead and order for all four nights and try to sell the unneeded ones on the street. I'm already going to be two rows lower than last year and don't see how I can wait much longer without moving further down in our preferred backstretch section.

For those who can/want to wait, go for it. Your best bet for the first three nights may be to buy on the street

I am only going by the past, but I will get the correct answer on this. As far as the roster, keep an eye towards the "Drivers" section as I continue to edit driver pages as I hear from drivers.

By the way, tickets are selling faster for the Nationals then they have in years...

I ordered nine full sets of tickets last night. Didn't feel I could wait any longer without losing seats in the area we want to sit. I would agree that sales look to be ahead of past years. Still lots of tickets left, but I know I'm bring four people (including two grandsons who are really getting into sprint car racing) who have never been before.

By the way, Bill, thanks for all the information you post. Not sure what your connection is to the track, but I can always count on accuracy when you post. I grew up going to Knoxville back when Earl "the plumber" Wagner was racing, and after a long hiatus started going back for the Nationals in the mid 90"s. I still have one brother who lives between Pella and Knoxville, so I try to catch a few weekly shows, too.

Got 3 sets yesterday (plus camping). Didn't get my re-newal form this year and just got behind in getting my tickets so did not get to sit in our regular area but still got pretty decent seats I think.
