Probably celebrated the win too hard so in retrospect Gragson could have saved his live by dumping his son.

Nice!

Seriously, though. You're not going to build a following for a new race in the middle of a city that is not exactly full of nascar's core audience by charging $300 goddamn dollars to walk in the door.

I got a direct email from a ticket rep for the Chicago Street Race, and I replied letting him know that I had been hoping to get GA tickets but heard they were gonna be almost $300. I'll just post his reply here in full:

quote:

We don’t have pricing details for GA admissions as of yet. However, the Formula 1 Miami Grand Prix was selling GA admissions, for just Sunday, at $500.00 before taxes/fees. Keep that in mind.

We currently are only selling tickets for the whole weekend (no single day admissions) with reserved grandstand-style seating going for either $465.00 or $521.00 AFTER taxes and fees. That covers your entire weekend admission, puts your name on a seat, and includes access for both races and both A-List concerts that will follow each race. These concerts will be full sets – not a 20 minute pre-race show.

There’s a lot of value here, but we understand that it adds up quick. That’s why we offer financing options with no fees or interest.

This whole time I've been thinking "who do they think they are, F1??" and it turns out that.... well yes, they want to be F1. Sad!!

It's extremely funny that he went out of his way to pick maybe the most overpriced F1 race in existence. Three-day general admission for Montreal is $200.

Is it bad that I wondered the same thing when I first saw the price?

You could probably go to the Daytona 500 and Xfinity race for about the same price with primo seats and be able to see the whole thing.

Nascar will sell all those tickets in Chicago and laugh at all the poors having to watch the race on the TV.

And it will probably just be a lovely race anyway. Pretty stupid track with 7 90 degree corners.

I mean, just take a walk around the parking at an IMSA event and it is a whole different walk of life than NASCAR or NHRA.

I'm not saying it is a problem, just saying maybe there's a little disconnect with the new folks in charge is all.

That really sucks. Dale Jarrett to Bobby Labonte to Kyle Busch and now nothing because his lovely little grandkid wants to keep his old number? That's a big piece of NASCAR history getting poo poo on.

What is it with rear end in a top hat car owners pissing on the legacy of their important car numbers for their shithead grandkids?
