Pit gate Outside turn two on the right side of the fairgrounds opens at 3pm. Main and back gates open at five.
Blankets, seats and coolers up to 14inches allowed, NO BEER, No glass.
NO TAPE. Use bungy, Rubber bands,
I suggest if you arrive after five and really want to get in as there gets to be a huge line at the main gate to go to the pit gate. Good seats will still be available at six but by race time at seven, You'll be in a pick whats left or go to turn two mode. (Another 1600 seats)
Sometimes the pit gate will be open earlier than three, However you will physically have to return to it to pay at 3pm. They do this to get all the teams in and if someone from the previous night has to say finish rebuilding a car or putting one together from a last night incident. Then they can be ahead of the game aproaching hotlaps. )
No guarantee on that earlier than three thingy
