Show-Me 100 ticket renewal deadline nears for Lucas Oil Speedway premier event
By Lyndal Scranton (Wheatland, MO) -- Fans who purchased reserved three-day passes for last year's Show-Me 100 Presented by ProtecttheHarvest.com have until the end of this week to renew them through the Lucas Oil Speedway office.
The 28th annual Show-Me 100 is set for May 21-23 with both individual daily reserved tickets and three-day passes going on sale to the general public on Feb. 3, according to Admissions Director Nichole McMillan.

"It's getting down to crunch time for those fans who want the same seat locations they've had in the past," McMillan said, noting that even though last year's event was postponed after storm damage those who had purchased reserved tickets have first rights to those this year.
"If they haven't renewed and plan to do so, time is running short. Starting next Monday, Feb. 3, those tickets will be released to the general public. We always have a rush on orders when those open up."
Fans wanting to renew can call McMillan at (417) 282-5984 or reach her by email at nichole@LucasOilSpeedway.com. Fans also can use those contacts to purchase the tickets when they go on sale to the general public next Monday.
The three-day passes are $100 and offer the comfort of the high-back, stadium-style seats and prime viewing on the top few rows of the front straightaway.
The Show-Me 100 weekend features the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series, co-sanctioned by the Lucas Oil MLRA, plus Pitts Homes USRA Modifieds. Action kicks off on May 21 with the "Cowboy Classic" headlining the program, with a $6,000-to-win, $600-to-start main event which also enables drivers to earn valuable points toward starting position into the night-night main event.
The "Tribute to Don and Billie Gibson" on May 22 also will see a $6,000-to-win feature with more points earned for the starting lineup the next night. Full USRA Modified programs also are scheduled each night.
The May 25 program includes B Mains, the Midwest Sheet Metal Show-Me Challenge and the 100-lap, $30,000-to-win main event along with a $1,200-to-win USRA Modified feature.
