LOUDON, N.H. (September 17, 2009) – A capacity crowd will be on hand for Sunday’s SYLVANIA 300 at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. Speedway officials announced today that other than a “few” single seats and handicap accessible seats, all tickets to the grandstand seating area are gone.

A limited number of backstretch, standing-room and infield “Trackside-View” tickets are available. Tickets to these areas are still available in advance by calling the speedway’s ticket office at (603) 783-4931, which speedway officials are encouraging.

“Positioned as the opening venue for the first race in the Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup, we are thrilled that these drivers will begin their quest for the championship in front of a full-house,” said Jerry Gappens, executive vice president and general manager of the speedway. “This is a testimony to the loyal fans who support NASCAR racing here at New Hampshire Motor Speedway.

“As the largest sports and entertainment facility in New England, located in the seventh-largest media market in the country, this speaks volumes,” said Gappens.

“We urge those fans unable to join us at the speedway Sunday to buy tickets for Friday and Saturday’s exciting days of racing, and to tune in to ABC’s coverage of the SYLVANIA 300, beginning at 1:00 p.m. Sunday.”

Tickets are also available for Friday’s Heluva Good!(r) Pole Day activities, and the NASCAR Camping World East Series Heluva Good!(r) Fall 125, as well as Saturday’s NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour New Hampshire 100, NASCAR Camping World Truck Series Heluva Good!(r) 200, and the ACT Invitational. Tickets start at $20 for adults.

For more information or to purchase tickets to the SYLVANIA 300 weekend events, go online to www.nhms.com, or call the speedway Ticket Hotline at (603) 783-4931.
