Iowa Speedway president Jerry Jauron says season and individual ticket sales are strong with the season opener less than a month away. The first of two NASCAR Nationwide Series events at the Newton track is May 22nd.

Jauron says they anticipate having a few thousand new season ticket holders this season among the 20,000 season tickets.

The second Natiowide Series race will be Saturday, August sixth. Jauron says race fans get a lot for their money at the Iowa Speedway.

Jauron says their prices are as good or better than any other track as he says they have a lot of things like fireworks, food and tailgating.

The Indy Car Series returns in late June.
