Cowtown's "Sprint Shootout" Weekend to include Topless 1

$85K November Sprint Shootout Weekend Grows A Day Due To Topless 100

 

by Darin Short

 

Kennedale TX (10/22/09) - When Mother Nature through a monkey wrench into the Cowtown Sprint Nationals finale, it created a new twist to the 3rd Annual $85,000 November Sprint Shootout (NSS) presented by City Vending and the ASCS2 Series finale presented by Eagle Chassis. The NSS is set for November 13-14th at Cowtown Speedway in Kennedale TX.

 

That twist is the addition of “Fan Appreciation Night at the Topless 100” held on November 12th and the elimination of practice night for the NSS, which was originally set for the same night. So in other words, November 12th will be the conclusion of the October 11th events.

 

This night includes two Limited Modified qualifiers, and all three championship features: The Topless 100 for Modifieds, the 40-lap Topless Limited Modified Championships and the 30-lap Winged 600’s Championships. No new race entries will be allowed, and drivers not previously set in the remaining qualifying grid are not allowed to compete.

 

Grandstand tickets for Fan Appreciation Night at the Topless 100 on November 12th are $0.00. That is not a misprint. Ticket prices for grandstand admission on November 12th are zero dollars for all age groups, regardless if you were in the grandstands on October 11th or not.

 

So, grab your in-laws, outlaws, outcasts, neighbors, foes, family and friends and bring them out to Cowtown for a night of great racing action…courtesy of Mother Nature. And we shouldn’t have to worry about weather that night, as she certainly wouldn’t rainout her own event.

 

Each competing team that is pre-qualified for this event on November 12th will be assigned six pit passes for that evening’s event at no charge. The track has a list of those drivers and teams will sign in by car number to receive their November 12th pit passes upon arrival that evening.

 

All events on November 12th will be paying the complete advertised purse set for October 11th ($2000 to win Topless Modifieds and $1500 each to win the Topless Limiteds and Winged 600’s.).

 

Pit gates will open at 5pm and grandstands will open at 6pm. Hot laps will be at 6:30pm and races at 7pm sharp. Those that had purchased reserved seats for October 11th will still have access to the reserved section from that event on November 12th.

 

Any driver that is qualified for the November 12th program (the drivers of the two Limited Modified last chance qualifiers and all drivers in the Topless 100, Topless Limited Modified and Winged 600’s) but cannot return to compete on November 12th can receive the advertised event starting money payback by notifying the track by email only, at CowtownSpeedway@yahoo.com on or before October 31st.

 

Those drivers not available to return will then have their payback sent to them the following week by mail and their names will be removed from the November 12th line up and free pit pass list.

 

Again, no additional drivers or starting positions will be filled on the November 12th event. Each of the two Limited Modified last chance qualifiers will advance six cars to the feature starting field, regardless of any ‘no-shows’ for the November 12th event; as those drivers already opted to take their starting money instead of returning, so the total purse will remain the same regardless.

 

Race fans and teams will be rewarded for their patience, understanding and love of racing with the running of the Fan Appreciation Night at the Topless 100 on November 12th. This event also concludes the www.SouthernMonthOfMoney.com 5-race sprint schedule.

 

As was the case with the Cowtown Sprint Nationals, drivers of all race divisions are urged to pre-enter online (only) by November 7th, as that guarantees your race hauler a reserved parking space in the pit area. Pit spaces will be reserved on a first-come, first-served basis. Phone-in registrations are not accepted.

 

Over $10,000 has been added to the 2009 NSS purse, without any increased ticket price, pit pass price or entry fees. Complete November Sprint Shootout event details can be found at www.CowtownSpeedway.com as well as advance ticket information, pre-entering and more.

 

Don’t miss the final weekend of racing for 2009 at Cowtown Speedway with the “Holy Grail of Open Wheel Racing” with the running of the November 12th Fan Appreciation Night at the Topless 100 and the November 13-14th November Sprint Shootout; featuring $7000 to win the Sprint finale. $2000 will be going to each of winners of the ASCS2 Series division’s finale presented by Eagle Chassis; $2000 to win Modifieds and $1500 to win Limited Modifieds at the Fastest Li’l Dirt Track In Texas – Cowtown Speedway!
