Well we've heard about it for along time now, and we finally get to do the first part of it. We get to do the first 3 days this weekend. Is there anything a couple hicks from Iowa need to know about Gas City, Kokomo, or Lawrenceburg? Just wanna blend in and see some great racing. We have not purchased tickets yet, hopefully thats OK. Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

Plan on having a great time
 . You won't be disappointed . After 3 nights of the best non-wing dirt racing at the best tracks Indiana has to offer, you will be looking for reasons to call in sick so you can  attend all of sprint week. You purchase tickets the day of races at each track.

Lawrenceburg,,,,,, you will enjoy, great track, wide enough, that 3 wide is common, show usually run very well, best safety crew in dirt track racing, plenty of seating, no need to pre order tickets. If you enjoy casinos there is a good one right across from the entrance to the track, so either come early, or plan to stay late. Also has a hotel, and good buffet if you're interested. If you lean more to fast food, go west on 50 out of the track, thru Lawrenceburg and you gotta try Skyline chili on the left, if you've never been to one, or many others. Have fun.

Nice to see more people from Iowa who have decided to shed their wings to visit the promise land known as Indiana. Make sure you get to Gas City as early as possible to get a good seat.

Id be at both Gas City and Kokomo way early if you want a decent seat. Especially Gas City. Or just pay the 5 dollars extra and sit in the pit grandstands. Which will also be full at race time. Much more comfortable.

If I were you I would stay in Kokomo both Fri and Sat. That way you don't have to change rooms and can head to the track earlier. Have fun.
