Two $2,000/win Bullring Ovals Kick Off 2017 Sprint Car Bandits Series on March 31st - April 1st

 

Mesquite TX (3/14/17) - The 2017 NCRA Sprint Car Bandits (SCB) series presented by Blaine's Motor Supply will fire up with two exciting events, both on 1/4 mile 'bullring' ovals: Heart O' Texas Speedway in Waco (Friday March 31st, 8pm) and Superbowl Speedway near Greenville Texas (Saturday April 1st, 7pm). A full field of quality 360C.I. sprint car teams from throughout the region are expected each night.

 

Each event will pay $2,000 to the 25-lap feature winners, $1,000 for second place and pays down generously to $300 to start each event (see below for complete breakdown). All non-qualifiers or non-starters will each receive $100. There is no entry fee, no series membership fee and just a $15 nightly draw fee.

 

For Heart O' Texas Speedway information, please click www.HeartOTexasSpeedway.com and note their address is 784 N McLennan Drive Waco, TX 76640 (just north of town right off of I-35); track phone is 254-829-2294. Races fire up at 8pm on March 31st.

 

Superbowl Speedway is located at 437 FM 1903 Greenville, TX and is quite easy to get to. Take the 'FM 1903' exit off of I-30 (exit 87, about 45 miles from downtown Dallas), then head east 3 miles and you will run into the track. The main entrance is first and is for race fans going to the stands. The second exit off of corner 4 is for the pit entrance. On race day, the track phone number is (903) 883-2504 or click

25-lap SCB feature race payback for each of these events: $2,000, $1,000, $600, $500, $400, $390, $380, $370, $360, $350, $340, $330, $320, $310, $300, $300, $300, $300, $300, $300. $100 for non-qualifiers or non-starters. No entry fee or series membership fee; $15 draw-in fee.

 

As a reminder, previously our draw-in rules have changed for 2017. Now all sprint car teams that sign in will draw for heat race starting positions, regardless of their engine C.I. displacement, and will receive passing points to determine their straight-up from points feature race starting position. All drivers make sure to read the posted rules at the series website prior to heading to the track.

 

The SCB series has a unique rules package that allows teams to use their current equipment (especially in the engine compartment), yet curbing nightly tire expense...which helps equalize the competition, with teams of varying budget sizes.

 

That rules package certainly has the vote of many of the drivers in the DFW area, as 42 competed with the series in 2016. Series rules are posted at the link below.

 

Between the lower operating cost of the SCB series and the addition of sponsor funds into nightly purses, it is allowing more area race tracks to book events - which all translates into DFW area fans getting to see quality sprint car race at a lower grandstand ticket price.

 

When you combine those components with lower nightly competitor operating purses, it all equals one thing: the new Sprint Car Bandits series!
