If i recall. the spectator pit pass in those days was an upgrade ticket from a general admission, at least here at e-town. the weekly events were three to five bucks, I remember the national event being somewhere from the low teens to the high twenties by the time I was old enough to enter the pits in 1973 (18 in NJ)

I've looked through some Natl. Dragsters from 76-78 at they would have adds for Natl. events, aand if I remember correctly, reserved seats were like $20 so your not that far off base.
 
Clive and Bernie?

Capp in the yellow shirt...and the "Beard" off to the right.

Yup, see Gary's picture/tickets post. It was 11 dollar spectator admission ticket and a 3 dollar pit pass for a Sunday back then. :cool:

Wow, cool stuff. I went with my Dad who was working for Wide World Of Sports at the time, I don't remember the year but I do remember having an ABC Wide World Of Sports All Access pass.

And Cal Jam! Ted Nugent coming in by helicopter, Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, and Keith Emerson playing a spinning Piano! Good times...........
