DIX, N.Y. (WETM) – There’s already a large population of NASCAR fans, vendors and employees here at Watkins Glen International. Michael Printup, President of Watkins Glen International explains why this race is so important.

“Being a road course you can keep selling tickets. That’s why we don’t have a capacity here. Because we’re the second to last race before the playoffs. So for the drivers to make the playoffs they got this weekend and next weekend to do that.”

Tickets are still available at theglen.com
