Thinking of attending the indy race for my first visit to Pocono, do you guys offer garage passes?
Pocono Raceway |
Josh – Thanks for reaching out to us and we would love to see you next August for the INDYCAR race weekend. Paddock Passes are available for $20 on Saturday, $40 on Sunday or a two-day pass for $50 (valid for both Saturday and Sunday). Paddock Passes give you access to the paddock (area between pit road and the garage), the garage area and pit road (for ages 18+ per INDYCAR rules/regulations). The Paddock Pass is not a ticket and requires a daily gate admission ticket for each day you intend to use it. If you are coming both Saturday and Sunday, you will need a Saturday and Sunday Gate Admission Ticket and the Paddock Pass. If you have any additional questions, give a call to our ticket office at 1-800-722-3929.

Are you going to offer free admission to those who bring their classic cars like you did last year? My son and I had a great time showing our 1965 Sunbeam Tiger and walking through the paddock. We missed the race because of the rain but would really enjoy doing this again this year, hopefully without the bad weather!
Thanks.

Fred – That has yet to be determined. Check back with us in May and we should be able to provide a better answer at that time. We hope to see you this summer!

Will there be an open to the public testing session for INDYCAR this 2017?
Pocono Raceway |
Scott – Thanks for reaching out to us. We do not have any INDYCAR testing on our schedule at this time. If this is something that does get added, we will be sure to announce it and detail whether INDYCAR, Firestone or we open it up to the public.

I am interested in going to the Indy car race in Aug. I see that you are having a special vintage midget race on Saturday. Can you give me some information on this. Plus info on the best package for the weekend?
Pocono Raceway |
Ron – Please visit http://www.poconoraceway.com/schedule. It includes some of the vintage car schedule, but more information will be announced following our July NASCAR event weekend.
