GLENDORA, Calif. -- As part of the celebration of the NHRA's 50th anniversary of the Auto Club NHRA Finals, the world's largest motorsports sanctioning body will make an offer to area students that they simply can't refuse: 50 percent off general admission tickets for any race day during the event.

Discounted Thursday tickets are $10; Friday tickets are $23 and tickets purchased by students with ID on either Saturday or Sunday will cost $29 each.

Every ticket purchased for the season-ending NHRA Mello Yello Countdown to the Championship playoff event, Nov. 13-16 at historic Auto Club Raceway at Pomona, includes pit access that gives fans direct access to the teams and allows fans a unique opportunity to see firsthand the highly-skilled mechanics service their hot rods between rounds, and get autographs from their favorite NHRA drivers.

Students can purchase the discounted tickets only at the ticket window and the special offer is available to any student possessing a valid student ID. This is a walk up offer only, one discount per ID, and cannot be combined with any other offer and is not valid on previous purchases.

The 2014 NHRA Mello Yello Drag Racing Series season has been one of the most exciting seasons in drag racing history. The best in Top Fuel, Funny Car, Pro Stock and Pro Stock Motorcycle will once again battle for the coveted race victory and world championship titles at one of drag racing's most tradition-rich events. Shawn Langdon (Top Fuel), Matt Hagan (Funny Car), Rickie Jones (Pro Stock) and Eddie Krawiec (Pro Stock Motorcycle) were last year's winners of the season-ending race, which will once again be televised on ESPN2.

Mello Yello Drag Racing Series qualifying begins Friday, Nov. 14, with sessions at 11:45 a.m. and 2:45 p.m. The final two qualifying sessions will take place Saturday, Nov. 15, at 11:45 a.m. and 2:45 p.m. Final eliminations are scheduled for 11 a.m. on Sunday, Nov. 16.
