Alright, This girl I worked w/ called me today to tell me she had recieved
the tickets she ordered. She got me 2!
Section 102 Row 8.
Are these seats any good. Not that I care. I'm just happy to be going.
Been a race ran for many years and this is my first REAL race.
Anybody else going?

Good news and bad news. The good news is that Dover is a really cool place
to watch a race from. The bad news is that like most ovals, the best seats
are at the top of the grandstands (sorta like the opposite of being at a
baseball game). Since you are only sitting in the 8th row, it may be tough
for you to see a lot of the track. You should still have a blast though. You
can see a seating chart at doverdowns.com. Judging from that, you are close
to the start finish line and should have an excellent view of the pits.

Gandolf, the only 2 races I have seen were both at Dover, as gary says
you'll miss the cars going by in front of you, only see the roofs, but you
will definitely hear them  LOL I sat at entrance to turn 1 and went down to
the fence a few times to see the cars go by up close, what a rush, till
security suggested moving on...You will encounter hellacious traffic getting
out, take your time and barbecue or something, it will all be worth it.   Ed

Lucky Dog.....Dover is a great place.....Any seat will be better than mine.
I got to go there last Spring. The drive from Dover to Baltimore after the
race was a total nightmare. The Bay Bridge near Annapolis was the worst
traffic I have ever seen....Have fun, it's a great race !!!!

I went to my first Winston Cup race last week, the Coca-Cola 600.   The WC
atmosphere was awesome, but the BGN race was better...   go figure.  It's great
fun, especially to laugh at all the people that are drunk off their ass near
you.  :)
