Eldora Speedway
Tickets for
Eldora Speedway events on sale Monday
No Increase in
Ticket Pricing Coupled with 2013 Parity of Competition Prompts
Unprecedented Interest
ROSSBURG, OH (February 7) – Starting Monday (February 10) Eldora
Speedway fans will be able to purchase tickets and campsites for every
race meet on the aggressive 2014 schedule. Since early December,
the ticketing department has been filling orders for the time-honored
major events, 20thannual Dirt Late Model Dream (June 5-6-7), 31st
annual Kings Royal (July 11 & 12), 2nd Annual 1-800 CarCash
Mudsummer Classic for the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series (July 23)
and 44th annual World 100 (September 4-5-6) at a record
pace. That tempo will pick up starting 9 a.m. Monday as
tickets for the balance of the highly-anticipated season become
available, with no increase in pricing, for purchase.
Ticketing manager Tess Thwaits encourages fans to use
www.EldoraSpeedway.com as the fastest way to get their choice of seats
and to complete their purchase.
“We always want fans to take advantage of the proven
TicketForce-prepared design for easy and quick purchasing. The
TicketForce system has been in place for several years and has
demonstrated its ability to process a huge volume of orders
simultaneously while being extremely user-friendly,” commented Thwaits,
the granddaughter of Eldora founders Earl and Berniece. “We know
that some fans prefer to call in, so we will have a full staff of
agents in-house and ready to answer the box office hotline of (937)
338-3815 during normal business hours, and the speedway box office will
be open for walk-in orders.”
Parity of competition, regardless of division or sanctioning body,
became the buzz word in 2013 and that has prompted an unprecedented
interest among race fans coming into 2014.
“Without a doubt, Steve Kinser’s announcement that 2014 will be his
final year chasing the World of Outlaws (WoO) STP Sprint Car Series
championship has created a stir and Kings Royal tickets are selling at
a record pace,” stated Eldora General Manager Roger Slack.
“But it doesn’t stop there. Whether it’s the Johnny Appleseed
Classic (May 25) prior to the Dirt Late Model Dream weekend or the Ohio
Sprint Speedweek (June 21) prior to the Kings Royal, every race on
Eldora’s unique schedule leads into a major event and the fans have
come to realize that drivers value the track time that can be gathered.”
Special events hosting the premier series in dirt racing make up the 28
race schedule. Fans will witness the stars of the World of
Outlaws STP Sprint Cars, UMP DIRTcar Super Late Models and Modifieds,
the United States Auto Club’s (USAC) Silver Crown, National Sprint Car
Series and National Midget Car Series, the UNOH All Star Circuit of
Champions and the United States Hot Rod Association’s (US Hot Rod)
Monster Jam series. The regional BOSS non-wing Sprints will join
May’s Mobil 1 $8 Family Fun Night and Fireworks Spectacular plus
Eldora’s Modified and Stock divisions will be contesting their season
championship from April through October.
