Don't buy a reserved ticket if it's too much. GA is still 35. It's been that for as long as I can remember.

pit pass has been free with advanced tickets. and the second feature can be very few cars on the lead lap. I just dont see what the need is for raising the prices 5 more bucks. 35 bucks is alot of money, 40 is just that much more. If the place cant put asses in the seats to begin with, why fleece those who support ya? I know you dont have the answer, just wish someone making these decisions would listen.


wtf! the pit pass is an added value for natta, zip, nothing. upgrade your ga ticket race day to a pit pass and i bet you pay an extra $10. pre-ordering tickets and getting a free pit pass sounds like a deal.

what does the number of cars on the lead lap have to do with anything? if that is one of your concerns then you should probably never watch sprint cars.

what would you consider a fair price for this event?

Whats it gonna be next year? Fab 4 Fridays $20 gen admission???? Jesus!




That is weekly general admission in New Jersey for Big Block Mods, Sportsman Mods, and Pure Stocks. It is 15 in Delaware, 14 at Williams Grove (Fri nights, and Lincoln). The 14 at Lernerville for what is offered is really not that out of line.

i've been to lots of weekend races where they do not charge for your 4 wheeler and every drunken @sshole that has one brings it to track and drives it as fast as they can, all day long. the races i have attended where you have to pay for your 4 wheeler are a lot better it sure does cut down on the number of douche bags driving past your family at 60mph.

i wonder which type of fan warrior97 is, probably the drunken @sshole type?

Don't drink and don't own a four wheeler, Look's like your the asshole

fear is not an option

I'm not clear on whether or not you are breaking metalcowboy's balls, but just for the record, Lernerville hasn't had a front gate increase for their regular shows in 6 or 7 years. As a way of regional comparison, would you rather go to Sharon and pay $15 for that nightmare of a program?

If you are not a Sprint fan, or just a casual one, I can see the carping about the price. I wouldn't pay that amount for any SLM race, but that's just me. I want to see most of the best Sprint driver's in the country, so I have no trouble paying it. Should be a great show like it has been since they revamped the format.

I agree...Sharon aughta be about $8 bucks to get in & Lernerville should be $12 JMO

Why do people need to complain? If you don't want to or can't pay for it don't go. I'd you want to and can pay for it go...WRG, Lernerville, whoever doesn't owe you anything. The price is the price pay it or don't...

How'd that "ball lickin" work out for you and your brother at Tri-City????
I bet mommy and daddy already have you and your brother in-laws front row seats reserved so you have prime access to build your little gravel track for your lil sprint cars.........

Lernerville has raised General Admission front gate prices in recent years. They did so before last season. Look at it this way, any other track in the area decides to add on of the top 3 divisions to their regular program price is going up to get in, it will not be $14. Not sure why you think it's a surprise that someone brings up what some other tracks out their charge. What myself and most of what you would call the "WRG/Lernerville ball lickers" want to know is where is all of these great speedways at that do things right, and are superior to Lernerville?n Tri City was the supposed answer last season and charged $12 for their friday program. 20+ for Sprint car specials. I have been to 14 tracks this season, and 22 last year and Lernerville stands at the top of the heap with a few others. Sure, there are things we don't like (UMP Tire rule), but for people to say the price of that race is out of line, they just simply aren't informed. A program of Super Lates, Big Block Mods, and 410 Sprints is going to cost you at least 20 bucks anywhere else in the country. What track running big cars still has $8 admission? It is 2012, tracks can't afford that.

Wow your a moron. I guess not wanting to see people complain makes me a ball licker. I could care less about WRG as a group. I like this race and fortunate enough that spending $35 doesnt mean the world to me. You prob feel entitled to a low ticket price...if times are hard enough that $35 drives you to call me a ball licker I feel sorry for you. I'll buy you a ticket. Give me your info and I'll have I waiting at will call for you. I won't give you the $35 directly bc you'd prib just spend it on meth...

You're probably right on that. I have a good job and 7 bucks isn't gonna break the bank. I probably lose more then 7 bucks in a given week. Maybe if 7 bucks is a problem for you, you shouldn't be wasting your money on the races anyways.

And thats not neccessarily directed towards any one person, it's just a general statement.

I wasn't directing that part at you, i just quoted you because of the prices from last year. Awful lot of people complaining in here about a couple of buck is all I was saying.

Silver cup reserved seats 39 bucks this year??? That's 5 bucks more than last year if I remeber right. Fire cracker tickets were 35 this year...that's 5 bucks more too. Does anyone else think this is too much? Don't they realize that racing already costs too much and is shrinking the field because drivers can't afford to run, now ticket prices are doing the same? Attendance at some major races this year has sucked. Raising the prices will only make it worse. Without the fans they have no reason to race, so why fleece the fans?

either pay for the ticket or dont go you cheap bastard. you bitching on here isnt going to lower the price
