Pomona Raceway question (3 Viewers)

[sammi]

I have a simple question about the pitside gate at Pomona Raceway. Can spectators pay and get in at this gate (gate 15 I believe)? The Metro yellow line has a stop real close to this gate.

 

[none]

Unless somehting has changed, no. There is no pedestrian access at Gate 15.

But that may not be true for all events at the Fairplex.

Gino, its true for both NHRA national events

There is access @ gate 16 on Arrow Highway as that is a ride share pickup/drop off. It is not on public maps but was confirmed by NHRA last November. Not sure if you can purchase a ticket at that gate but you could pre purchase an electronic ticket.

I purchased a general admission ticket there Sunday @the Finals. The fellow who took my money asked if I came to watch it rain. Turns out, I did. I took the light rail from Downey to there, about a 2hr. ride, but did not pay for parking. Will do it again.

cool. that drops you off right at the laverne/fairplex station? how much was the rail fee from downey?

 

[nose4nitro]

Yes, it's the new Metro Gold (A) line extension. Being a senior/off-peak trip, I took the Green(C) line to the Gold line (A, used to be the Blue line) - 35 cents each trip, round-trip: $1.40! Leaves me more to spend on In-N-Out & merch...

 

[nose4nitro]

The most the fare costs, Regular fare/peak hrs. M - F, morning & afternoon rush hours is $1.75 ea. trip, or $7 for my round trip

i had no idea LA had such a large light rail system until i read your post, not to mention a station right at the fairplex.
