Hi, we fly in from UK on Saturday 7th, making out first trip to the nationals, we got our tickets sorted for the 4 nights of the nationals. We will also go to the 2 nights of racing at Oskaloosa, we dont have tickets for these, i sent them an email but not had a response. Is it a sell out or are seats always available? Any advice will be great. Thanks.

UK Fan, I would check out this website. It lists both an email and phone number. Typically Lori or Terry are pretty good about answering the phones during business hours.
I have reserved my seat almost every year since year 1 for this event so could not tell you how many will be available during race day.
Although I would assume a larger crowd this year.
Good Luck.
Keep It Real

It's been my experience that plenty of tickets are available the day of the races. I would go early afternoon to the track on Monday as they're selling tickets early. I usually get both sets of tickets on Monday afternoon. You're in for a treat with USAC at Oskaloosa.

You should just be able to show up and get tickets. They seem to have extras available. How in the world did you get into sprint cars living in the UK?

To answer ColtanW, "how did we get into sprint cars living in the UK"
The 6 of us that are making our first trip to Knoxville are all heavily involved with motorsports here in the UK, racing on 1/4 mile dirt and tar ovals. We try to come out to Florida for the racing in Feb most years. My first trip to the US was back in 92 and we attended Devils Bowl, TX, hooked ever since! Sprint cars are a "must see" for anyone involved in motorsport, the atmosphere, the racing, the speed, the drivers, the crews, the fans, the food, the beer etc etc means we never need much of an excuse to save up, book a ticket and come racing.
Tracks already attended - East Bay, Volusia, Desoto, New Symrna FL. Williams Grove, Lincoln, Grandview, Lernerville, Port Royal, Trailway PA. Hagerstown MD. Charlotte NC. Devils Bowl TX. Las Vegas NV. Probably a few more that i can't just remember!
Looking forward to the trip.

No disrespect to Devils Bowl as it is one of my favorite tracks, but if you were hooked after that, you're gonna freak out after going to the Nationals and you'll find yourself going through DT's on your plane ride home. I is unlike anything your will ever see in racing.
