texana55 Posted September 4, 2012 Report Share Posted September 4, 2012 Less than 3 weeks away for this rescheduled event. As noted in another thread, this will be Bruce's last race to run as an owner of the raceway. Would sure like to see the pits overflowing as the Tesch's run their last race at TRP!!! Is anyone ready to run for th $2,500 to win in limiteds? Can anyone out drive Wade Jones before he wins a 3rd straight street stock series event? $100 to start the A Main in Street Stocks and $500 to win, plus nightly awards for pole sitter, hard charger and B-main winners (remember, if running in street stocks you must be registered with the series or register for a one night run at a cost of $20 paid directly to the series. This is above and beyond what the track charges to race.) $100 to start the A Main in Limiteds and $2,500 to win. Plus, remember, there will be a promoters choice for 25th starting spot and an auction for 26th starting spot. Start money goes all the way down to 26th.

It is about 10 miles from the track and new. Been open about six months. If not there, back to Victoria for lots of hotels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
