General Information
At Richmond International Raceway both of the races are at night at
the ¾ mile flat short track. As with Bristol Motor Speedway
there really are no bad seats here. There are, however, certain places
where views might be slightly obstructed.
Commonwealth/Nextel Rows 1-34 -
The Commonwealth E-J goes up to row 43. These seats are the best seats
at the track. They are right in front of the pits and above row 14.
You should have a good view of the entire track. These would be the
seats that would impress someone special and their prices usually
reflect that.

Veranda Rows 1-30 A-F, Dogwood AA-F Rows 1-30, Colonial A-E Rows 1-34, Old Dominion K Rows 1-34
-
All of the sections listed are excellent seats allowing you a full
view of the pit road but also lets you view the race without turning
your head this is a bonus at a short track. Be careful of colonial
section E if you want to have a drink during the race as it is a non
alcoholic section.
Editor Rating: 
Dogwood G-S Rows 1-41, Dogwood Tower Q-S, Old Dominion A-J Rows 1-34
- These sections are not bad. You still have the luxury of not
having to turn your head to watch the race, but you are unable to
see the pits from this area.

Henrico A-ZZ, Henrico Tower A-Y -
These seats are on the backstretch turns. Turns 2-3 and the backstretch
itself. If you are looking for the cheapest seats in the place these
are it. If you can afford to upgrade yourself to one of the better
sections described above I would encourage it. Be careful in the Henricho
Towers. The higher up you get the more difficult it becomes to see
the cars when they suck up to the walls on the backstretch. In Towers
P-R rows 1-18 watch out for Dogwood section O. This is another non-alcoholic
section.
