I am headed to the Dream this year and trying to find out where I want to sit at. I am wandering if anybody can direct on my preferences. I don't like to be round party people with tons of drinking going on. I would rather not sit up in turn 1 and 2 grandstands. I was thinking more like sitting on the front stretch or in turn 4. Does anybody got any opinions which sections you think would be better sitting in away from the partying crowd? Definitely want to make my first ever trip to the Dream a pleasant one so all info and opinions would be appreciated

We sit towards the turn 1 end in section I. I think that end is less drinky if you will. A lot of the drinkers congregate around the bar area at the other end of main stands.

I just don't care much for being around party people. I sat next to guy at Ponderosa Speedways Fall Classic last year that was high as could be and he almost passed out in my lap. Not fan being around people like that. Sometimes they like to fight lol

There is hardly very many people who sit right in the middle of turn 3-4 bleachers in front of the suites where we sit. Plus , normally there is hardly any dust or dirt at all there. We sit and watch all of the dirt go right into turn four and the front stretch and then see people get on here and complain about it (It looks like a brown cloud going right around the track and missing you,maybe its the wind from the cars blowing it back towards the track from the suites ?) lol Plus the bottom 5 rows are not reserved so you can sit where you want.

T3G!!! Love those guys. Good group of tight knit people who do a lot for people, charities, and families of people who struggle.

I would get a GA and Pit Pass, you can sit anywhere you want for the dream. World get reserve.

How do you get pit pass? I am not seeing that as an option on the Eldora website

Anymore I just buy a pit pass and wonder around where ever I can, and find a seat for the A main. Used too you change your gate ticket in for a pit pass, and back then it was $5, that's all changed now though. I haven't bought an actual GA ticket in probably 10 years or more now.

You can buy pit passes at any of the ticket gates. I'm not sure if you can buy them online unless ya enter a car.

You can upgrade to that when you get to the track at the front gate. It's only like $5 or $10 more. I'd never been to Eldora until the World last year and ole boy sitting behind me on Thursday and Friday clued me into that.

Huh partying n Eldora kinda go hand n hand. I've sat in ntc concrete section for 20 plus years, good seats. Can't stand the grandstands , way too crowded, n my luck is the dates mfer in the country will either b beside or in front of me then your up n down all night letting people in n out. The dream is no where near as crowded. Up under grandstands is to f n hot n your really squeezed in. My opinion the reserved concrete row one is the ticket,

Luv racin, last year it was myself and 6 buddies. Absolutely the most racing and pit pass for the money. Last year I think it was $83 for all 3 nights plus pit passes.

I think you are confusing the Dream with the WoO Finals. ;)

Prices are $24 GA Thursday and Friday with Saturday $40. Reserved seats are $4 more per night with a pit pass $5. The $5 covers as many nights as tickets presented. SO make sure you have tickets for however any nights you are going so you don't have to pay an additional $5(s) for more nights.

They have a non drinking section, I believe in turn 4. Not sure. Buy the Pitt pass sit where ever. Plenty of room at the dream. I would highly recommend watching some heats at least from inside the infield. You will not regret it at all.

I always watch all of Friday from inside
