    Lawrenceburg Speedway

    I am hoping you all can help me. My family and I are planning on going to the World of Outlaws Sprint Car Race next month. We have never been here before but, we do know we have to purchase reserve seats. The only problem is, we have no idea where to sit. I know we definitely want to sit more on the front stretch on either side of the flagstand not in the turns. The big question is, How low is too low as far as rows in each section? Hubby is not wanting to sit in the upper rows so, that's the dilemma.  If anyone has any other need to knows, please feel free to share.

    Thank you in advance! 

      sitting on the front stretch are the best seats and you can see the whole track from almost any row. i haven't been to a sprint race there in a lot of years. i would not sit in any of the lower 12-15 rows. the sprints used to throw a lot of clumps of mud up into the grandstands. especially early during hot laps and less as the night goes on. there's another site, www.indianaopenwheel.com. ask the same question there and you'll probably get a more informative answer.

          Like mentioned above, sit at least 10 rows up from the bottom, but there isnt a bad seat on the frontstretch, can see from about anywhere , just dont sit in the corners though. Nice track!

            Thank you all for the help so far! Quick question, I noticed the press box, does it obstruct your view any if you are say sitting in section C near the top or can you possibly see over it? I know at Muskingum if you are sitting too close to theirs it does block your view. Again, thank you for all your help!

              You cannot see over the pressbox.

                Thank you! So, if you were sitting say on the top row of section C then you won't be able to see turn 4?

                  If I remember correctly you can see the whole track from anywhere. Been a couple years since Ive been, I usually try to sit middle ways up.

                    Thank you! Do you remember if there is aisleway on each end of the row per section? Like the way Florence is. Just trying to make sure that we are not stuck in the middle of a row, hubby would love that.

                        Thank you so much! Sorry, for all of the questions, it is hard to get someone from the speedway to you call back.

                            Been to Lawrenceburg a few times and there is really not a bad seat in the house there.
                            I usually sit about mid-way up to about the top row.
                            WOO has put on some good shows at the Burg in the past so it wouldn't suprise me if they do so again.

                              You better set high as you can or bring a shovel.
