fourth annual Texas I.M.C.A. Nationals

KENNEDALE, Texas (Feb. 23) – Kennedale Speedway Park takes its turn in

hosting the Texas I.M.C.A. Nationals, sched-uled for Saturday and Sun-day, May

24-25.

Sanctioned Modifieds and Stock Cars will be joined by the I.M.C.A. Hobby

Stocks as a dozen tracks in Texas and New Mexico pool their time and talent in

promoting the fourth annual event.

Sponsored by Sunoco Race Fuels and Day Motor Sports, the Texas I.M.C.A.

Nationals pays $2,000 to the Modified champion, $1,500 to the Stock Car winner

and $250 for first in the Hobbies.

National, regional and state points will be given in all three divisions.

“The effort that goes into planning and staging these races is enormous,”

I.M.C.A. Vice President of Operations Brett Root said. “The success of this

event is due in large part to the cooperation between the promoters involved and

their willingness to work together in a common ven-ture.”
