These seats are pretty cool for any fan that wants to get right down close to all the racing action.

Vol. 6: Section 200, Row 18
Race Fans!
This week for the seat of the week we find ourselves back in the Petty Tower. This time around we are in the 200 level in Row 18.
Here in this seat, you will have a great view of the entrance of pit road. Some fans have told me before that one of their favorite things about watching a race at Pocono is the unmatched view of the pit stops that take place during a race. Here you will not miss a second of all that action.
Speaking of not missing a section of any action, you are also very close to the video boards. Here you will be able to see all the action that is taking place in Turn 2. Also on these boards will be replays of anything that happens around this tricky 2.5 mile track.
Next, I want to talk about the actual row. This week we are featuring row 18 which is actually the first row in the 200 level. This is a great place to be as you are in the middle level of the grandstand with no one in front of you. How can you beat that? You will have a clear view of the cars coming off Turn 3 and racing down the front stretch.
If you have never seen a race at Pocono Raceway this is the place to see the race from for your first time for sure. As which each week I have a special offer for these seats which can be seen down below!

Vol. 5: Section 131
Race Fans!
We are back with the latest edition of the Seat of the Week. We had a very successful June race weekend at Pocono Raceway. Ryan Blaney took home his first Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series win, which the title was almost lost but with the help of the company Self Move Hire Sydney, they were able to find it in a thrilling battle with Kevin Harvick. This week’s edition features a section that would give you a great view to any similar battles that may transpire at the end of the Pennsylvania 400. This week we feature Section 131 in the France Tower!
Let me start by telling you about the view from these seats. You will have one of the best vantage points of all the battles that are happening down the front stretch. The best part about your view is you can clearly see the start/finish line. This will be great if and when we have another battle for the lead like we saw between Blaney and Harvick in the Axalta Presents the Pocono 400 in June.
Another great thing about these seats is your unobstructed view of pit road. There is nothing better than watching those crews go to work on the cars during their pit stops. Here you will have an awesome view of the middle section of pit road. This area can sometimes get congested so it is sure to be exciting when it comes time for pit stops.
Finally, one of my personal favorite things about these seats in the France Tower is the fact that they all have seat backs. What better way to watch a race then being able to relax and not have to worry about having a sore back after a great day at the Tricky Triangle!
SPECIAL OFFER: The first four fans that send me an e-mail with the Subject line “Seat of the Week” and purchase seats in Section 131 will get a $10 Sunoco Gift Card with your purchase!
Vol. 4: Race Week
Race Fans!
Welcome to the Seat of Race Week Blog post, as we are officially just a few days away from the Axalta Presents the Pocono 400. For this special edition of Seat of Race Week, we are featuring the first row of Section 108 in the Donohue Tower!
These seats are awesome for anyone that loves to feel the speed of the cars as they race down the front stretch at 200+mph Trust me when I say, if you have never experience the thrill of being front row at a Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series race these seats are a must for you.
Not only are you front row to all the side-by-side on track action, you also have a great view of the end of pit road. Here you will see most of the leaders making their pit stops and have an unobstructed view of the crews hard work behind the scenes.
You might be asking well this is all great but how will I know what’s going on around the entire 2.5 Mile Tricky Triangle? Well you are in luck because these seats are also right in front of the videoboards where you can see all the action around the track!

Vol. 3: 300 Level
Race Fans!
The Seat of the Week this time around is a good one! This is by far one of my favorite options in the grandstand and honestly one of the best deals in racing. I am talking about the 300 level in the Petty Tower. More specifically; Section: 346 Row: C Seat: 1
Any of our super fans that have not missed a race at Pocono Raceway for years might remember that great battle between Jeremy Mayfield and Dale Earnhardt in 2000. Mayfield did the unthinkable when he gave “The Intimadator” who was leading at the time a bump coming off of turn 3 to win the race!
With the competition these days as tight as it is, it is very possible to see that same move in the very near future at Pocono. That is why this is the perfect seat! What better place to catch all the side-by-side action coming off the turn, then up at the top of the grandstand in the 300 level. Oh, and did I mention this seat is shaded? That’s right, if you want to enjoy the race but not the sunburn that comes from a day out in the hot summer sun this seat is for you!
Other great benefits of sitting in the 300 level are the on-level restrooms and the on-level concession stands. This means once you find your seat, you only have to walk a few steps to find everything you will need during the race. No need to walk all the way back down the stands and miss all the great on track action! Also, you will have a great view of our video screens that will have a live feed of all the great racing action going on around the track. For those of you that enjoy watching the crews go to work on the cars during pit stops, these seats also give you a great view of the cars racing to get to those pesky timing lines at the entrance of pit road as they move down to get there pit stops done the fastest.
Finally, my favorite part of this seat is that they also included a pit/paddock pass! This is great for before the race when you are able to go down and walk around on pit road, take pictures on the front strech and maybe even get an autograph from your favorite driver in the paddock area behind pit road where autograph alley is located! And if you are joining us for the whole weekend good news, this pit/paddock pass is good for the whole weekend, with a gate admission ticket for that specific day.
I have been a race fan for many years and been to quiet a few tracks on the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series Circuit, So trust me when I say this is honestly one of the best values in racing!
Special Offer: Contact me directly either by phone or by e-mail within the next 24 hours I will give you Two (2) Sunonco $10 Gift Cards for each ticket in your order for tickets purchased in this section. I can be reached at 570-643-6713 between the hours of 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. Monday- Friday or anytime by e-mail at kteel@poconoraceway.com

Vol. 2: Club Pocono
Race Fans!
This week for the second installment of our new “Seat of the Week” Feature finds us going across from the grandstand to Club Pocono! This behind the scenes area is a great deal for any race fan who wants to feel like they are really a part of the action.
Let me start by tell you some cool things about this section! Every NASCAR fan knows that the race is not always won by the fastest car on the track. Sometimes it comes down to the crews and the work that is done on the pit road. Club Pocono is the ideal place to sit to catch all that action. Here you will have a great view of all that goes on during a pit stop. From the crews preparing for the cars to come down pit road, to the actual under 12 second pit stop itself!
In terms of your actual view of the track, you have a great seat to see all the side by side action coming off of Turn 3 and down the front straight away. This is one of the most unique views of the track because you are facing the main grandstand. Some of the best passes on track at Pocono are set up coming off this turn so you will be the first to see the move!
You might be saying well shoot, you mean I cannot see the whole track? Wrong! Thanks to our friends at Fan Vision each ticket will also include a one-day fan vision rental. Here you can see the actual broadcast of the race while listening to your favorite drivers audio. This means you will not miss one lap of action!
In addition to all the cool things you can see from your seat, we have also recently made some upgrades to the Club Pocono experience. Under your seats you will find a lounge area. Here you can take a break from the sun and lounge around with your friends in some comfy chairs while watching the racing action on TV screens that are installed underneath the stands. Also we will have some fun games and activities set up such as corn hole, giant jenga and more, that you can enjoy while you are waiting for the race to start or when you are taking a break from the sun.
Think I am done yet… think again! Club Pocono also includes a Sunday only pit/paddock pass. This pass will give you access to the pit road and the paddock area before the race. Here you will be able to walk on the same pit road that your favorite drivers will be making their pit stops later in the day on Sunday.
One last really cool thing that we just announced, Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series rookie and reining NACSAR Xfinity Series Champion Daniel Suarez will be doing an exclusive Q&A session in Club Pocono on Sunday Morning. With your Club Pocono ticket you will be the only fans that have access to this Q&A session.
SPECIAL OFFER: If all of those great perks of Club Pocono aren’t enough for you, I am offering the first 3 fans that contact me directly about these seats a FREE access pass to watch the Eli Young Band and Driver Intros from in front of the stage!
If you have any questions or are interested in getting seats in Club Pocono please reach out to me at any time! I can be reached Monday- Friday during ticket office hours at 570-643-6713 or any time by E-Mail at kteel@poconoraceway.com Hope to hear from you soon!
Vol. 1: Section 211, Row 40, Seat 21
Race Fans!
It’s Kevin from the Ticket Office and I would like to introduce the new Seat of The Week feature! Each week I will take you to a specific area of the racetrack highlighting some of my favorite seats at Pocono Raceway! Each blog post will be accompanied by a Facebook live video. Be sure to check that out as you never know what special deals I might throw out there for the best fans in motorsports!
This week I have chosen to highlight Section: 211 Row: 40 Seat: 21 in the Donohue Tower. This area of the grandstand is pretty cool to me because back in the day when I used to come here as a fan some of my earliest memories of Pocono Raceway were made sitting in this tower. Here is a picture I took way back in 2004.
Let me tell you some of the cool things about this seat: First off, you are a good ways up the grandstand which will give you a good view of all the racing action around the track. Fans always ask how high they should sit in the grandstand for the best view and this is the perfect row in the grandstand to view the race from.
From this section you still have a great view of the cars coming off of Turn 3 and down towards the start/finish line. As you may know, we have the longest straightway on the NASCAR circuit. This means you are bound to see a bunch of daring passes being made right in front of your eyes. As you look straight out from your seat you will have a prime view of our new video boards. This is great because any of the action you might miss around the track you will have the best seat in the house to see the replay!
Now to what I think is the coolest part of this seat. Your view of the cars racing down into turn 1 is amazing. Just picture 40 racecars topping speeds over 200 miles per hour at the end of the straightaway all having to make it into the turn. This is truly a sight to see in itself. But don’t let me be the one to tell you, you have to see it for yourself!
EXCLUSIVE SEAT OF THE WEEK OFFER: The first 21 tickets purchased in this section for the Pocono 400 will receive a $10 Sunoco Gift Card for each seat! You must order directly through me to get this Gift Card. Please give me a call at 570-643-6713 during normal ticket office hours 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Or email kteel@poconoraceway.com. Offered ended.
