Gold Crown at Granite City last year required same band all 3 nights.

I disagree with you Bill that this is an exceptable practice. Why does it matter who's butt is in the seat I paid for? I paid for 5 seats and should be able to entertaine different customers and clients of mine in those seats each night.

Didn't mean to start a s**tstorm. It is what it is and I'll figure something out but I too thought I'd be able to bring some different people each night and expose some newbies to sprints at Kokomo. Disappointed, wish I knew this when I bought the tickets way back when, but figure something out and have a good time.

If you bought a 3 day ticket pass for the Smackdown before July 14th, it came with a FREE pitpass. I'd say they decided to use arm bands for the 3 day passes to make things a little easier.

You get your arm band on day 1... days 2 and 3 you don't have to stand in a line waiting to get your arm band or ticket. It makes perfect sense to me.

I disagree. I do not buy pits passes. During racing the drivers are busy making a living and view usually stinks.
The pit passes were added to entice me to buy early. I did not buy early for the pit pass, I bought early to get a good reserve seat which I did. I will, however, take a strole through the pits prior to the action on the track and try to stay out of the way. But as soon as the track has cars on it the vast majority of my time will be spent in my reserve seat enjoying the great Kokomo action on the track. And I believe anybody get in the pit free after the racing has finished. That is usually the best time to approach drivers.

Ok, you guys buy your own race track and then you can make the policy whatever you want.

Enjoy the race!

Seems odd to me that plenty of seats are still available? I thought the grandstand would sell out fast.

Why would that be odd?? The world of outlaw show sold more tickets in days leading up to the race then then when they first went on sale.
