Lyndal Scranton (Wheatland, MO) -- One of the biggest dirt-track races in the country turns 25 this year. And the deadline is quickly approaching to renew three-day passes tickets for the 25th annual Show-Me 100 Presented by ProtecttheHarvest.com at Lucas Oil Speedway.

Starting on Feb. 1, Show-Me 100 tickets will go on sale to the general public for the May 25-27 dirt-racing crown-jewel event that's part of the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series.
"Once those go on sale, it's going to be a free-for-all," Lucas Oil Speedway Admissions Director Nichole McMillan said. "Lots of people are waiting to sign up for reserved seats for Show-Me week."
But through Jan. 31, fans who have yet to do so can renew their same Show-Me 100 three-day reserved-seat pass, for $95. Fans also can purchase season passes for all events on the dirt track in 2017 and an all-events pass that includes drag-boat races and on the new off-road track - though after Jan. 31 there is no assurance of the same seats for the Show-Me 100.
"The three-day passes for the Show-Me being included in the season pass is the best way to go," Lucas Oil Speedway General Manager Dan Robinson said. "But if you don't want to commit to the season pass, the three-day pass for the Show-Me is a great option because it assures you a great view and guaranteed seat along the front straightaway - with a comfortable seat-back - each night regardless of how big the crowd is."
The daily ticket breakdown for Show-Me 100 weekend:
May 25 and 26: $25 adults, $22 seniors (62 and over) and military, $10 youth (ages 6-15), FREE 5-and-under. Family pass $50 and pit pass $35 (three-day pit pass is $100). Three-day reserved seat is $95.
May 27: $30 adults, $27 seniors (62 and over) and military, $10 youth (ages 6-15), FREE 5-and-under. Family pass $60 and pit pass $40 (three-day pit pass is $100). Three-day reserved seat $95.
Those interested is any of the ticket options can call McMillan at (417) 282-5984 or stop by the speedway office during business hours, Monday-through-Friday. Fans also can get ticket info online info, including specifics on the family pass, at http://LucasOilSpeedway.com/tickets.
Season passes for the dirt-track events - 13 weekly racing programs plus 11 special events - are $400 for adults and $300 for seniors. That covers all three nights of the 25th annual Show-Me 100 Presented by ProtectTheHarvest.com May 25-27, the 11th annual CMH Diamond Nationals on July 15, open-wheel specials that include the three-night ASCS Jesse Hockett/Daniel McMillin Memorial Sept. 21-23, the Lucas Oil Pro Pulling League and the Lucas Oil Monster Truck Nationals.
All-Events Passes are $500 for adults and $400 for seniors. In addition to the dirt-track events, that pass includes both races on Lake Lucas - the 6th annual John Haas Memorial Drag Boat Classic June 9-11 and the 7th annual Diamond Drag Boat Nationals on Sept. 1-3 - plus the Inaugural Lucas Oil Off-Road Racing Series event on the new off-road track July 22-23.
"We're getting a lot of questions about the Off-Road event and that is included in the All-Events package," McMillan said.
"I would also like to remind everyone that water and electric, electric-only and reserved dry camping fees can be paid anytime up to one month before the event they would like to attend," McMillan added. "Also, if they are not paid in full one month before, those spots are forfeited to be sold as first-come, first-served. There will be no refunds for those sights cancelled after the one-month-prior deadline."
Dry camping spots can be paid for upon arrival, she added.
