Good luck with that I spent 2 hours this morning to finally get tickets as the website crashed twice. They finally got it fixed but I'm sure by now not much left for pdc.

I had trouble as well. But eventually I got through for some Frenzy tickets. Looking forward to getting back to Illinois for some exciting racing.

I see they doubled the price of reserved seating and raised the price for camping. I also heard there is some infighting amongst some people running things. I hope they don't do like NASCAR, get big heads and ruin a good thing.

Yes for pdc they raised reserve seating price without any notice as I have a group of 30 ppl that go that live in different states so I put up the $. Also they had to make $ as they have a payroll now versus it was volunteer. They need to figure out away to fix the website from crashing an being super slow as there was NO reason to wait 2 hours to get anywhere.

PDC has around 4000 reserved seats and 3000 general admission seats. They all sold-out last year with several hundred standing room only. I know there is discussion on adding seats during offseason. Only places to do so are turn 2 where the legendary bus sits lol, and the backstretch where they'd have to stack or do some sort of catwalk type of seating. A double decker backstretch would be nice. I have no doubt, if they could increase the seating to 9000 or even 10,000 they could sell this race out or come close to it. If not next year, then by 2020 for sure.

The problem is not seating its no room to park an no room to camp they hit their max last year. And the Bigger issue at this point is the website to get more seats an to check out. They still have seats available in section I an in section a an the new bleachers in turn 4. But there was no reason for it to take 2 hours to get new seats an to check out.

I have no problem with them charging $10 per reserved seat for the PDC as it is a two-day show. We pay $5 for the one-day reserved tickets.

Also, I personally had no wait time whatsoever when I added some FALS Frenzy tickets.

I have no problem paying $10 the problem is they charged more with no notice on raising the price. Just by charging $5 more means they just got $20,000 extra in a day. An you don't have 30 seats to pay for with most of the group is from different places. As far as frenzy,summer nationals they are never even close to being sold out so really u bought reserved seats for no reason as if u look to the person near u they didn't spend that $ on reserved seat. The only race that ever sells out is pdc.

Exactly what NASCAR did when they had a good thing, wring every penny they can out of the fans until they say no more, leave and never come back. Fairbury made their name by being fair to the fans and putting on a great race, now they're getting greedy because they can. Sorry if I offend but sometimes things just need to be said.

on reserved seats for summer nationals last year I just walked in an got my regular seat without a problem an yes it is on the back stretch an we had a group of 8 for that race. And yes they have to make the $ because they have a few people on payroll now which before never had. An the wrong guys at that. The guy that does the track prep Mr Rhodes is the one that should be getting the $.

Parking is a problem. Not near enough. They need to have someone directing cars in the parking areas at all times. Got trapped in last year. Won't happen this year as the chains will be in the truck for the idiot that wants to block the exit.
FALS has exceeded what they can handle as far as parking and seating as far as I'm concerned.

They would be kind of dumb not to raise prices for the PDC.

If you think you are going to walk in for the Hell Tour date and get a seat on the backstretch, you had better be early. It will, as always, fill up quickly. Only reason it won't, if their is a good chance for rain.

I'd be glad to pay quadruple the admission price to see that black dirt fairbury racing! Give my left nut to have FALS in Calhoun County Alabama. Can't wait to make that 10 hour drive next month.

There's a new racing format being introduced for the PDC this year. Not sure when they plan on announcing. I figured by the time they released tickets to the public, the announcement would be made. I know Matt Curl said he would be announcing some exciting news in the weeks to come. Well, that was almost 2 months ago, lol.
