Kentucky Speedway Sells Out First NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Race

When the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series races at Kentucky Speedway for the first time on July 9, they will do so in front of a sellout crowd.

At a time when other tracks are struggling to fill seats, Kentucky Speedway announced it has sold out the 107,000 grandstand tickets, but infield and standing room only tickets are still available.

“Selling out the inaugural ‘Quaker State 400’ with more than a week before the event is a great testament to this market and our fans,” Kentucky Speedway General Manager Mark Simendinger said. “Our packed stands will combine with overflowing corporate display, hospitality and camping to create an electric atmosphere as we make Kentucky sports history,”

The speedway will host the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series Thursday, July 7 in the UNOH 225, the NASCAR Nationwide Series Saturday, July 8 in the Feed The Children 300 and the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Quaker State 400 Saturday, July 9.
