The final break in the NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series season has passed and the pursuit for the 2007 championship has come down to a weekly shootout, as the green flag of the Checker Auto Parts 500 Presented by Pennzoil - the 20th fall NEXTEL Cup race in PIR history - approaches in just over three months.

Tickets are still available for all seating areas at PIR as the top drivers in the NEXTEL Cup Series will be on hand looking to wrap up the highest prize of the 2007 campaign.

Fans looking for a seat in Turns 1 and 2 in the new Bobby Allison Grandstands can purchase seats - get them while they last, because seats are limited - at $82 apiece. All seats in the Bobby Allison Grandstands are comfortably equipped with seatbacks.

For fans looking for a great view of PIR's frontstretch turns, look no further than the Foyt (Turn 1) or Petty (Turn 4) Grandstands. Tickets there - providing great views of late-lap action and the pits - are on sale for $87 and $62.

Those fans looking to be right on top of what is sure to be a close, competitive finish can take their seats in the Bryan Grandstands at PIR's start/finish line. Bryan tickets, also equipped with seatbacks, are on sale for $72.

If the backstretch is your favorite place to watch a race, then make your way to Grandstands 3 and 5 just outside of Turn 2 for $55 or less. Tickets are available for $55 and $35 each - that's a value!

Two-Race Ticket Packages, including tickets for the same great seat to the Checker Auto Parts 500 Presented by Pennzoil and the NASCAR Busch Series ARIZONA.TRAVEL 200, are also available. Prices range from $147 to $276.
