You might not believe it but I got one of those free for Sunday a few years ago. I was in line to buy a spec side w/pit pass for about 50.00 and some guy says "I have one ticket _____ section" ...didn't mention price.

At first I didn't say anything, thinking it was more than I wanted to spend. For the heck of it I asked "how much?" and he said "free"...extra ticket/someone didn't show-up...you know the story.

Last year,my friend and I got two pit side reserved tickets for 50/each, the same way. A couple of his friends didn't make it to the race.
