Own A Piece Of Talladega Superspeedway History

Race fans that want to bring home a piece of historic Talladega Superspeedway will have that opportunity immediately following the 2009 AMP Energy 500.  As part of a massive frontstretch grandstand renovation, the track is selling a limited number of original seats from the inaugural 1969 Talladega 500.

“Ever since we announced our grandstand renovation project, our fans have inquired about purchasing the old seats,” said Talladega Superspeeedway President Rick Humphrey.  “We are offering a limited number, so anyone that wants to own a piece of history needs to act fast.”

The seats will be sold as a set of 4 for $99 and comes with a certificate of authenticity.  Only 1,000 sets will be sold.  Purchases can be made at www.talladegasuperspeedway.com/My1969DegaSeats.  All sets are sold as-is and must be picked up.  No seats will be shipped.

In 2009, Talladega Superspeedway proudly celebrates forty years of the most competitive racing in NASCAR.  While the track has seen changes made to the cars that circle its high-banks, the surface that they race on and the grandstands that thousands of fans fill twice a year, one constant remains; Talladega Superspeedway is authentic NASCAR racing at its finest. 

AMP Energy presents the Zac Brown Band and Southern Ground Records artists Levi Lowrey, Nic Cowan and Sonia Leigh.  The weekend features the AMP Energy 500 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race and the Mountain Dew 250 fueled by Fred’s NASCAR Camping World Truck Series race.

Tickets prices start as low as $40 for the AMP Energy 500.  To order, call 1-877-Go2-DEGA or visit www.talladegasuperspeedway.com.  For our hearing impaired guests, please call TDD 1-866-ISC-TRAK (1-866-472-8725).
