TICKETS ON SALE MARCH 2nd
Click to purchase tickets and/or reserved seats to the 44th Annual Sunoco North/South 100!
$75,000 to win Feature caps off huge weekend of racing.
The 44th Annual Sunoco Race Fuels North/South 100 presented by Lucas Oil will be August 6th-8th. Thursday and Friday will again have twin features each night paying $6,000 to win. Saturday’s non-qualifier race will be a $3,000 to win event. Finally, the Sunoco Race Fuels North/South 100 feature event will pay $75,000 to win, and, an event record, $3,500 to start for a feature purse of over $210,000. The total Late Model weekend purse is in excess of $325,000 making it one of the top paying races in the sport.
Important Notes:
- New for 2026: Reserved seats will only be good for the days you purchase them.
- In the past, reserved seats were tied to Saturday’s race and buying any reserved seat reserved the seat for all 3 days. This caused some issues and exploits within our ticketing system. That is no longer the case. If you purchase a Saturday only ticket with a reserved seat, you are only purchasing the seat for Saturday. That seat can, and most likely will, be purchased by someone else for Thursday and Friday. If you want to guarantee that you have your seats for all 3 days, you will have to purchase a 3 day ticket for each reserved seat.
- Additional Reserved Seats added on backstretch:
- Due to high demand, we are adding an additional set of grandstands on the backstretch. This set will replace the small set of stands next to section Z.
- All front-stretch grandstand sections (A-J) are reserved seating in all rows. Backstretch grandstand sections (P-Z) Rows 11 and up are reserved seating and Rows 1-10 are open seating.
- Marking of open seating sections and camping areas is allowed starting Saturday August 1st at 12 pm. No marking of seats with adhesive tapes (duct tape, masking tape, etc.). No crossing of rows, aisle ways, or stairs with seat markings.
- PLEASE SEE THE CAMPING RULES BELOW.
- No coolers of any kind will be allowed in any grandstand areas.
- No chairs or cushions with seat backs will be allowed in any grandstand areas.
- Due to the large crowd expected to attend, and the crowding issues in the infield, No ATV’s, golf carts, side by sides, or other motorized vehicles will be allowed in the infield. Each team may have one ATV or similar vehicle for tools and tires in the infield, but it only can be in the designated hot pit area, and only while that team’s car is on the track. NO standing on ATV’s or Pit boxes while in the infield

Camping:
Camping is allowed at the track free of charge during the North/South week and weekend. No hookups are available. All camping spots are first come first served. You can see a camping map HERE
- Timeline:
- Sunday July 26th: All campers must be off property. No campers may return until Thursday July 30th. This includes both occupied and unoccupied campers, and any other vehicles.
- Thursday July 30th: Starting at 12 PM, the parking lot entrances will open. You will not be able to get on the property before 12 PM. Do NOT park on the side of the road or block US 42 traffic.
- Campers may be parked in Frontstretch and Turn 3/4 lots. Campers only may be parked. No additional vehicles, stakes, tape, markings, or anything to take additional space may be left. Anyone intentionally trying to get around these rules may have their items and camper removed.
- Also on July 30th at 12 PM, you may begin staging for the backstretch and southern lots. For those who want to camp in the lots to the Southwest of the speedway outside turn 1, you will stage at the gate outside turn 1. For those wanting to camp in the lots on the backstretch and to the Southeast of the speedway outside turn 2, you will stage in the pit area. The roads between the different areas will be closed, so make sure you are staged in the staging area for where you want to camp. This is only for the opening of camping on August 1st. To see a map explaining the staging click HERE
- Saturday August 1st: At 12 PM the Southern and backstetch lots open for camping. At that time you may mark spots and park campers. This is also when you may use stakes, tape, etc. to mark spots in the Frontstretch and Turn 3/4 lots. All lots will be open from that point through the duration of the race.
- On Saturday August 1st, No ATVs, UTV’s, Golf Carts, Motorcycles, or similar vehicles may be used for marking camping sites.
- Thursday August 6th: At 12 PM, all marked off campsites must be occupied by some sort of camper. From that point, any empty sites will be opened up for anyone to use. Also, those who mark off excessive areas and do not use all of the space they mark, may be asked to reduce their area. The goal of this rule is not to force people into smaller areas, or prevent people from saving spots for friends. The camping areas are one of our biggest logistical problems every year at the event, and many times, people take up way too much room, or mark off spots that never get used. This leads to us having to designate more and more areas off for camping. With us only having so much space for camping and car parking, something needs to be done to alleviate the problem. With this rule, we realize that there will be situations that arise that we cannot foresee. We will be taking each situation on a case by case basis and may need to make changes as we go. We ask for everyone’s cooperation in this.
- Please remember, camping is free. For that to continue, everyone needs to be considerate in the space they use.\
Vendors: Please contact us at jking@florencespeedway.com to reserve a vending spot. Due to sponsor commitments, vending space will be limited. Those showing up without reservations will be turned away.
Times: (Note: All times are approximate and may be adjusted due to weather, attendance, or management’s discretion.)
