Is it really $50.00 for a pit pass each night of Ind. sprint week ?

No! Were did you see or hear this?

I just quickly checked Bloomington and Lawerenceburg and they are both $30.

Is the $ 30.00 for USAC members or everybody?

95% of the time, pit passes just about anywhere are 30 bucks. Member/non member/whatever.

USAC Members would get in for $25 most likely.

Just to give you Indianians some idea why I have trouble getting worked up over the prices when I'm out there, here's the relevant lines from the Stafford Motor Speedway from tomorrow night's show that includes NEMA Midgets, ISMA Supermodifieds, plus Pro-4s (4-cylinder mods). Note that "paddock" is yuppie talk for "pits".

MUST BE 14 TO ENTER PADDOCK AREA

You should see how much NASCRAP charges around here for their modified series, and then they only have like 12-14 races! If they charged only $30 for the pit pass here, they would pack the place. They charge more than that just for general admission. No wonder the tour is hurting while others are growing

im thinking from a promoters point of view, they'd rather have 2 peeps come through the gate at $25-30 ea. vs 1 peep coming through at $45-50 ea...... more peeps = more hot dogs, more refreshments, more t-shirts etc.... Also more peeps provide a more electrifying atmosphere, which makes new peeps wants to go too and be apart of it.
