PIT PASS UPGRADES

 

A Pit Pass Upgrade is the process of adding a pit pass to a previously purchased ticket. This can be done for any and all of the July 17-20 event days.

All ADULT pit pass upgrades must be performed at the Upgrade Station located outside of turn 4, near Gate 3. You must have a valid ticket for each day you want to upgrade (meaning if you come on Wednesday and want to upgrade to a 4-day pit pass, you will need your Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, & Saturday ticket in hand to do so).

Minimum age in the pit area is 14. Ages 14-17 require parental consent waivers to be signed.

Pit pass upgrade prices:
Wednesday only: $10
Thursday only: $20
Friday only: $10
Saturday only: $20
4-Day (Wed/Thurs/Fri/Sat): $50
3-Day (Thur/Fri/Sat): $45
2-Day (Fri/Sat): $25

When upgrading a reserved seat ticket – you still retain the reserved seat location.

Regular full price pit passes are available at any ticket window around the track.

MINOR PIT PASSES:

All MINOR pit passes and MINOR pit pass upgrades must be processed at Gate 4. Minor waivers will not be accepted at any other ticket office or ticket window on property.


FAN ACTIVITY

 

TBA


POST-RACE TRAFFIC

 

Everyone arrives at different times throughout the week but most leave at the same time after the race. As such, parking lots and roadways can be congested. To help alleviate congestion, local authorities will be initiating a post-race traffic pattern with counterflow on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights that will get the lots emptied quicker.

Please look at the map below. Each lot will exit in a specific direction. If you find yourself going in the opposite direction that you need to be going, check out a local map of the area roads. Many roads and highways in this area are square mile blocks so getting yourself pointed in the right direction should be a breeze.

Please note: If you are camped in Eldora Village or Speedy and drive a vehicle across the road to park for the races – you will not be able to cross back into the campgrounds until the lots have emptied and traffic has cleared.


PARKING OPTIONS

 

As each afternoon progresses and we get closer to race time, please be prepared for congested traffic around the Speedway. As lots closest to the entrance gates reach capacity, please be aware of your other parking options. The map below depicts vehicle parking areas and their entry points.


HILLSIDE MARKINGS

 

On Wednesday, July 17, admission gates will open at 9:00 am. Eldora staff members will walk each line into the facility in a 𝙨𝙖𝙛𝙚 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙤𝙧𝙙𝙚𝙧𝙡𝙮 fashion. Lines will be walked to each respective holding area (see map above). Once all fans have safely moved inside the facility, the Eldora staff members will simultaneously release each line to begin placing chairs on the hillside. Fans are encouraged to use the attached map to ensure they end up in the area they want to place chairs. Tickets will not be needed to enter the facility at 9:00 am.

Gates will then close at 11:00 am on Wednesday for a complete sweep of the facility. All fans inside at that time will be asked to proceed outside the gates. Grand opening of all gates is scheduled for noon. Chairs may continue to be placed on the hillsides once gates are reopened (just make sure you have your ticket at that point!)

Notes:
* Fans lined up at the main gate will have the option to proceed to the holding areas at either end of the grandstands once the doors open.
* South end campers will be lined up between sections SI and SJ.
* When placing chairs, absolutely no stakes in the ground. No spray paint.
* Only mark off space equal to the number of people in your party. When the hillsides fill up later in the weekend; if there are large unused sections in your area, our ushers may start filling it with guests who need space to sit.
* Once placed, chairs may be left in place from day to day. Chair owner assumes all responsibility of chairs left on the hill.
