$22,000 ON THE LINE SEPTEMBER 29th! PURSE AND FLYER POSTED UNDER 'Resources'
Kilgore TX (8/17/12) by DarinShort.com. Here's a good old fashioned recipe that all race fans will enjoy:
-Step 1: Mix a huge batch of dirt slinging Factory Stocks from area tracks together, and divide them into qualifying races.
-Step 2: Take the top 30 and let them shoot it out for 30 laps - and the Top Stocker will take home $2,000 in cash!
-Step 3: Let fans witness the shootout for just $12.
-Step 4: And what do you get? A recipe for "Factory Night Special" at LoneStar Speedway that fans and teams will not soon forget!
And for a "side dish" the track will be serving up a "Nationals Warm-Up" for RaceSaver® sanctioned Sprint Cars.
Using the identical rules published for the upcoming LoneStar Sprint Nationals (Oct. 11-13), this will give RaceSaver Sprint Car teams one last shot to get their car dialed in for the upcoming big LSN show that pays $2,200 to win and $400 down to 24th.
RaceSaver Sprint Car teams can choose to run either the STS or SST right rear tire, grooving is allowed; any tire is OK on the other three corners.
This will also give fans a "taste" of the action that will be witnessed over Nationals weekend. There is no preregistration for this division and complete purse and rules are published at the track website. Fans can expect several out of town teams to be on hand.
As if that isn't enough on the "plate", it's also Season Championships night; with Modifieds racing for $1,000 to win and Limited Modifieds $500 to win. This is also the final point's night for the Factory Stocks.
Over $22,000 in purse money is on the line at LoneStar Speedway on September 29th!
