Mark Dobmeier takes the track for the first time in his New Buffalo Wild Wings Sponsored Outlaw Sprint CarSLS Promotions and River Cities Speedway Announce Ticket Updates for World of Outlaws Events4/6/2018  (Mike Spieker/Speedway Shots Photo) GRAND FORKS, N.D. — April 6, 2018 — A pair of changes are on the horizon for tickets and the seating arrangement at River Cities Speedway in Grand Forks, N.D., for both World of Outlaws Craftsman Sprint Car Series events in 2018.
First and foremost, all reserved seats will be enlarged to 20-inches in width to provide a more spacious and fan-friendly atmosphere in the grandstands. After this process is complete, the seat numbering of rows will be updated to reflect this change. In addition, advance ticket sales for both World of Outlaws events this year will be handled predominately by SLS Promotions. To ensure a smooth transition, patrons who purchased advance tickets last year from River Cities Speedway, will have the opportunity to purchase those same seats, before they go on sale to the general public. SLS Promotions will work to accommodate patrons to place them in the same seats or as close as possible to that patron’s seating preference from 2017. A limited number of reserved seats will be available for purchase from River Cities Speedway. Patrons will receive an email or phone call with further instructions in regards to renewing their tickets from last year. The 1st Leg of the Northern Tour for the World of Outlaws Craftsman Sprint Car Series at River Cities Speedway is set for Friday, June 15, with the 2nd Leg of the Northern Tour hitting the track on Friday, August 17.
