The front stretch stands are usually pretty packed in. There are stands and other areas to watch on the back stretch by the pits. I usually watch there because I am a pit junkie. Also I believe that you receive a reserved seat ticket in the back stretch grandstands with your purchase of a pit pass.

Yes, you do get a reserved seat in the pit grandstands with a pit pass. Good deal if you ask me.

The track runs east to west.Any south wind and you'll eat dirt on the the pitside.North wind to the spectator side.

The view coming out of 2 (pitside stands) is great, sometimes it's hard to see the turn 4 action unless you are in the upper rows.

If there is no wind it'll be dust for everyone. I usually set in turn 4 but the wife & I'll be pitside. I've left there & got home took my hat & glasses off & looked like a ol timey racer that just had goggles on. The racing is good on the high banked quarter mile & I hope it don't dissapoint this year.

been cleaning dirt out of my ears for years, mud in the bud too!

thanks for the advice all, dust in something that we cannot do without i guess. skagit gets so bad sometimes you can be sitting in four and not see turn two or three.

ps. the DIRT CUP at skagit is one week from this thursday.

also there are concessions right next to the pit side stands and the lineups are posted right next to the pitside stands.

I prefer turn 1. I have eaten dirt there every time, but the racing is ridiculous!

I wish the outlaws would race there a couple more times a year great racing facility is second to none and you still can carry your own beer in.

Thanks for inquiring about this years special 25th running of the Ohio Logistics Brad Doty Classic presented by Racing Optics that will be held on July 10th at Limaland Motorsports Park.

There are about 800 pitside reserved/pit pass seats that are first come first served and after that it is standing room only in the pits.

There are still reserved seats available in the main grandstand that you can purchase in advance by calling 419-998-3199. If you happen to get the voice mail please leave a message and Stephanie will personally call you back and take good care of you!!!!!

For more information and to see the seating chart go to www.limaland.com.

Along with the standard $10,000 to win, to commemorate the 25th year we are also paying a $2,500 bonus to the driver who leads lap 25 of the 40 lap A main and along with that sprint car fans Jim Valentine and his daughter Niki are paying $500 to the fastest qualifier in time trials, now know as the "Gene Frankart Fast Time", with $100 going to the 25th position in time trials.

We will also be giving away 2 Sbykes to 2 lucky fans at the event. A Sbyke is a cross between a skate board and a BMX bike. To see one of these wild Sbykes, go to www.sbyke.com.

Thanks again and we hope to see you there!

Thanks for honoring Gene Frankart. I used to drive from Owosso, MI all the way to Attica on Friday nights often just to watch him run a smooth, fast show on a very well prepared track. One of the nicest men I ever knew in this sport, he's still kicking, right?

NWFAN, Did ya get general admission or pits. 1 thing to watch for when they are racing is when they come out of 2 that back stretch wall comes up on them pretty quick & you can tell by the way they crank'er off to avoid hitting it.

There is an opening there that they come out of from the pits.

I guarantee you they will be wild & wooly come feature time. Especially when they get into lapped traffic, There will be action everywhere.

I had an Uncle 1 night ask when there was a caution whose doin what ??? As soon as I told him who was 1st through 5th they threw the green & they were battleling through out those positions. This was an All Star race a few years ago. Good thing he had someone that knew what was going on !!!!

My mom ran powder puff races out there. Either late 50's or early 60's
