Cowtown Schedule NOW SAT/SUN, 2/13-14; 170 Entries

Kennedale TX (2/10/10) - As can be the case this time of year, ‘weather interference’ can cause schedules to be adjusted when necessary.

 

With precipitation currently forecasted for Thursday, and below normal temperatures on Friday, the entire Cowtown Midget Championships weekend has now been shifted to racing on Saturday February 13th and Sunday February 14th.

 

The racing forecast for Saturday and Sunday currently looks very good with temperatures in the 50’s and no precipitation expected.

 

At the time of print, 170 race teams have entered early for the event, with around 200 expected to hit the high banked ¼ mile dirt track of Cowtown Speedway when a triple-header weekend kicks off the 2010 race season.

 

Here’s a quick glance at the revised weekend schedule, with details following below:

 

Friday February 12 – Practice night for cars competing this weekend only. Parking is assigned for this event, so cars not racing are not allowed on this special practice night. Gates open at 5pm, practice until 9 or 10pm. Main grandstand closed. Pits may or may not open prior to 5pm, will be determined Friday.

 

Saturday February 13 – Complete Midget program, with heats and qualifying features for all other racing divisions. Fan Fest from 12-1:15pm, Pits open at 1:30, Hot Laps at 3 and Races at 4pm.

 

Sunday February 14 – Complete Midget program, with last-chance races and features for all other racing divisions. Pits open at 11am, Grandstands 11:30am, Hot Laps at 12:15pm with races at 1pm. We expect to have racing concluded around 5-6pm.

 

Here are weekend event details:

 

The 2nd Annual Cowtown Midget Championship presented by City Vending, National Health Care Advisors and Sunoco Race Fuels will now take place on February 13-14, 2010; and will certainly provide a weekend of wild racing action once again. The full-blown midgets will compete for $1,000 to win on Friday and $3,000 to win on Saturday. Each of their feature events will start 24 cars. The midget portion of the weekend is sanctioned by SMRS/USAC.

 

The race in 2009 also resulted in the largest field of midgets in the state of Texas in recent memory, as over 40 teams assembled. With the Copper on Dirt scheduled the following weekend (visit www.USAraceway.net for more info), it is possible to see more touring teams take on the USAC/SMRS series drivers, as was the case in 2009. This changein the schedule will also make it easier for USAC traveling teams that have their final event at East Bay on Wednesday night, thus giving them another travel day.

 

The ASCS2 Series will be on hand to kick off their 2010 season with the Winged Outlaw ‘Multi’ and Non-Winged ‘A’ classes (of what Cowtown fans know as the Winged 600’s, just without wings). With $1,500 earmarked to win for each ASCS2 division, there’s sure to be full fields of top quality cars from throughout the region, as was the case with both ASCS2 events at Cowtown in 2009.

 

Plus, the first ever visit of the ASCS2 Restricted 600’s will take to the brand new 1/6 mile “Action Track” at Cowtown, with the winner taking home a cool $1,000.

 

The always exciting Cowtown Modifieds will race their traditional Feb Fast 50 for $2,000 to win and $400 to start (24th). The race will be sanctioned by NCRA. Visit www.NCRAracing.org for more info.

 

With over $60,000 cash posted for the weekend, fans can expect another great field of cars. Discounted race pre-entry has now concluded, but you can still register online at the track website. Midgets do not have a pre-entry fee, but must pre-enter to receive a reserved pit parking space.

 

Race fans, you can enjoy the entire weekend’s action by purchasing your 2-day tickets in advance at the track website by 2/12/10 (Friday). 2-day adult grandstand passes are just $30, a savings of $5 off of race night pricing. We also moved the deadline for the 2-day passes ahead one day, due to the schedule change.

 

And the extremely popular “Fan Fest” returns to Cowtown Speedway on Saturday, February 13th from Noon until 1:15pm. Ticket holders for that day’s race will be allowed into the pit area during that time to meet with the race teams, get autographs, apparel, pictures and much more. The main ticket booth will be open at noon as well.

 

An open practice night for all weekend competing race divisions (only) will be held on Friday February 12th from 5pm-9pm. Concessions and fuel will be available, and pit passes are $20. (The main grandstand will be closed Friday night.) It is possible that the pits will not open until 5pm on Friday, and will be determined on Friday.

 

As of the morning of February 8th, here is the complete final pre-entry list for the weekend’s action, 20-40 additional teams are expected to enter on race day:
