LVMS sells out reserved seats for Cup race

Thursday, Feb. 13, 2003 | 10 a.m.

Las Vegas Motor Speedway announced Wednesday that reserved seats for the March 2 UAW-DaimlerChrysler 400 NASCAR Winston Cup race are sold out. Race fans who have not yet purchased tickets can still get them, however, by purchasing a special $88 "Triple Play" package.

The Triple Play includes infield access for the Winston Cup race, a reserved seat for the March 1 Sam's Town 300 NASCAR Busch Series race and a general admission seat for the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series event Sept. 27.

With the added infield sections, this year's race is expected to top last year's record crowd of 137,500.

"Our ticket sales this year have been unprecedented, especially in a difficult economy," LVMS president and general manager Chris Powell said. "I fully believe this points up several facts -- that Las Vegas Motor Speedway is a great place to watch NASCAR racing, and that Las Vegas is a wonderful city to visit."

For tickets and information, call the LVMS ticket office at 644-4444 or visit the LVMS website at LVMS.com.
