What is the Sick Ward?

The Sick Ward is for people who want to spectate and cruise all week long at Sick events. A Sick Ward ticket gives you spectator entry to the entire event from testing to finals, and you’ll feel like you are a part of the community. For many people, the Sick Ward is the first step they take towards racing themselves, while for others it has become an experience all of its own as they enjoy watching the action and then taking on the drives between tracks.

Why should you be in Sick Ward?

If you plan on following for an entire event, you can’t beat the Sick Ward. Each Sick Ward ticket includes spectator entry for each event day for one person, a windshield banner, a t-shirt, an event program, a lanyard, and occasionally access to special checkpoints. You’ll even get to chat Don, our Sick Ward concierge! And all for the less than the price of what individual daily tickets would cost you.

But most special of all is that you’ll meet other likeminded people who will become friends for life. The social scene around drag and drive is truly special and that extends to the Sick Ward community.

How do you join the Sick Ward?

Joining the Sick Ward is as easy as purchasing a Sick Ward ticket to the event you want to attend. When you get to the event, park in spectator parking and then show your ticket at the gate. From there, go and visit the green Sick Ward tent to get your free stuff and you’re ready to go for the week!

The Sick Spit Show & Shine is an extension of the Sick Ward for classic, sporty, or otherwise interesting vehicles. There are application links on each event website. The Show & Shine is set up in the pits at each event and also includes some trophies for our favorite entries!
