Kansas Speedway Announces Another Sellout



    KANSAS CITY, Kan., Jan. 27 -- For an unprecedented
third time in as many years, Kansas Speedway officials announced tickets for
the five races that make up the track's RPM ticket season are sold out.
    All 80,187 season tickets for "The Track That Will Blow You Away!" have
been purchased by motorsports-hungry race fans from around the country. An RPM
Ticket this year includes admission to five races: the NASCAR Craftsman Truck
Series O'Reilly Auto Parts 250 on July 5; the Indy Racing League IndyCar
Series event and Indy Racing Infiniti Pro Series Aventis Racing for Kids 100
on July 6; NASCAR Busch Series Mr. Goodcents 300 on Oct. 4 and NASCAR Winston
Cup Series event on Oct. 5.
    Tickets sold out quickly because of a high renewal rate and an extensive
waiting list that had been compiled after last year's sellout. Speedway
President Jeff Boerger encouraged race fans interested in RPM events at Kansas
Speedway should call and be placed on a waiting list for 2004.
    "The overall package at Kansas Speedway and the diverse motorsports
schedule at our track makes people want to come back year after year,"
speedway President Jeff Boerger said. "We've generated interest among new race
fans and have helped the growth of motorsports across the Midwest. We've
created the best possible experience for race fans and we're thrilled that the
word has spread about Kansas Speedway."
    A waiting list for tickets will be compiled for 2004. Anyone interested in
purchasing RPM tickets for future seasons should call Kansas Speedway's ticket
office at 913.328.RACE to be added to the list. Future expansion and addition
of seats at Kansas Speedway is based on the waiting list.
    Though Kansas Speedway's RPM ticket package is sold out, seats for as low
as $20 are now available for Kansas Speedway's opening weekend, May 31 and
June 1. The ARCA RE/MAX Series BPU 200 and Kansas Speedway / Oklahoma Joe's
Barbecue Cookoff will jump-start an exciting 2003. The season-opening barbecue
and BPU 200 is not part of the RPM ticket package.
    Also, qualifying tickets for every event at Kansas Speedway and Fan Walk
tickets are on sale.
