Between paying off the saltwater auction recently and heading to the mountains next week I'm cash strapped and reluctantly going to have to pass.

Thanks though.
No Problem, if you change your mind let me know...you never know, they may still be available

Relatively short. When he visits and brings a carload of gifts for the granddaughter, he gets winded after a couple of trips out the the car and up the 4-5 steps to our back porch. He's also stubborn as a mule and refuses to get a handicapped parking pass, which is a must to utilize the handicapped parking at the speedway. Hard to believe, but apparently there are those who abuse those.

After I posted the question last night I took a look at the speedway's website and there is a lot of info there I need to dig through. I'll do some more research, and if it looks doable and if the tickets are still available, I'll get back with you.

Do not hold them for me. I'd say our chances of making it are way < 50%. Thanks for the response.

Guys, I will tell you that the price Max is asking for these tickets is really reasonable compared to what he probably could get for them. I just can't justify the expense right now or I would jump all over them. This is the hardest NASCAR race to get a ticket for and if you are a fan, you should jump all over these.

Max, I am surprised that they have not gone already.

Thanks for the plug Grizz.

Based on principle, I won't markup the price. I didn't buy them to sell for profit, just didn't work out with my vacation this spring. All I need is to get them off my hands so I can put the return towards my annual season ticket renewal.

I will tell you that I looked at StubHub this morning, and of all the ticket packages being sold in this section, only about 2-3 were less than $200/ticket. Most were between $220-$250.

Honestly with the economy taking a tank the last couple of years, I'm not that surprised that it is taking a bit longer than normal...

Since you're asking face for the tix, why not just post the price.

$385 is the face value for the pair for Friday thru Sunday.

If anyone is wondering if I'm legit, ask Jackal03. He took them off of my hands last spring. I upgraded locations this year so I would have the elevator access and the same seats all season, frankly I got tired of hauling my fat *** up the steps and all over the speedway over 2 weekends...

Best race I've ever been to.....and I have been to a lot of them. Bristol by far is the best track to watch a race first hand. Imagine watching a NASCAR race in the GA Dome.
