"We just keep adding to the excitement for this event," said MIR VP and GM Pam Kendrick. "Not only will fans get to see their favorite street racers take to the track to compete in a controlled, safe environment but our local racers will get a nice tune-up for the next day's bracket race and chance to win some extra money on Saturday."

Payout to the winner in each race will be $1,000 with $500 to the runner-up, $75 to the semifinal losers and $50 to the drivers knocked out in the quarters. There will be a $30 buyback for first and second round.



"We'll still have the open Test N Tune and $100 street car ET bounty on Friday and Saturday nights," Kendrick said. "These Gambler's Races will give each night of this Outlaws event its own identity. Friday will be more relaxed and Saturday we'll get down to some intense competition all the way around."
