are you talking about the ticket prices? They have not reduced the prices to enter the national or divisionals.

Yeah that is cheap but I think they are failing to tell you that in order to sit and watch you will need to pay another $10-15.
I had free general admission tickets to Norwalk last year but still had to pay $10 a seat per day to sit.

in gainesville the general admission tickets will get you in and you set on the other side of the track. reserved tickets set pitside.

Quick,
I should have said I got free ones from work and a VIP parking pass but still needed to pay to park my backside.
It was Norwalk and they have reserve seating on both sides.
No biggie just another way to get you to spend a little more $$
To me it is still a pretty good deal and my time there last year was priceless in my eyes. Took my step-dad, he had not been to a national event since the 68 US nationals.

someone wake me up when they lower the prices for the Sportsman actually entering the event or tell me what the mandatory extra $100 (I think it was 100?) insurance gets you.

i had read that there was only going to be 1500 tickets available at those prices...

From what I read, it was for 1500 people BUT
you had to buy the tickets in advance on the
internet, NOT at the gate.
I figure the couple of times a year that I go
to a national event (Pomona or Vegas) I use
my NHRA member discount (about $10 off) and I
only sit in the stands to watch Stock, Super
Stock,Super Gas and Super Comp.
Then I am back in the pits visiting friends.

Yea The Little FINE PRINT will get ya.We went to Columbus Ohio Spring NATS A Few Years Back as Spectators.Was there from Monday until Monday.Camped Next Door,and was in and out of the Rain...DOWN POUR More like it ALL Week...Sunday they were finally able to get cars down the track in the Afternoon.The Stands were BARE...We werent allowed into them though as we had GA Tickets and The SEATS were for RESERVED Seating ONLY..You Couldn't even BUY them at that point....
The Insurance Rule is a A$$Whipe Clause...It Costs US enough just to travel from event to event and Enty Fees Fuel,Expenses,Eats Etc...THEN They Put That Rule On US...
