We really like 307 or 308 or 318 or 319. First row if you can find them.

OK cool. I'm having a hard time remembering which end the starting line is on though........was looking at the track map to decide where we might sit.

The start is typically at the end of the stadium with the large glass that can slide open (right above the 400 section).

The best place to get tickets is from a dealer in the dayton, cincy, or indy area. We got section 241 for $52/each, which is premium seating in the middle of the track. Most Yamaha dealer have them, but they were going quick a few weeks ago.

Anybody know who has good tickets left? My son and I will be in the neighborhood (we are going to piggy-back my wife's work trip) so we're trying to get SX tickets. Never been there before (or anywhere in Indiana, for that matter) so any recommendations would be appreciated.

Thanks!

I have tickets coming (I think). Section 227. What else should we be looking to do? How is the Pit access?

Thx.

Strictly personal preference but:

I prefer sitting in the 200-300's for the night show and sit everywhere BUT your seats during the day.
THe 100's may be great for football/baseball, but you just stare head on at one section of one lane all night during an sx.
Getting up a little lets you check the entire track while still being close. I can only comment this based on Indy (RCA & Lucas), ATL, & Anaheim.

@JB19: You ride the ams track much? Got a friend wanting to go at the end of the month and i've never been. Opinions on it?
