Kennedale TX (4/12/10) - All eyes of the racing world will be on the Ft. Worth area this coming weekend with NASCAR races during the day at Texas Motor Speedway – and the ASCS Sprint Car Series returns to Cowtown Speedway on Saturday night, April 17.

 

This is an official ASCS sanctioned point’s event for the sprint cars and will pay the A-feature winner $2,000 and pays down to $250 to start.

 

Held during NASCAR weekend at Texas Motor Speedway, Cowtown Speedway has become the night racing option for TMS fans looking to catch some great action. Cowtown is known for running a fast and efficient show, so you can come watch a great night of racing and still get a decent night’s rest before Sunday’s NASCAR race.

 

In addition to a full racing program of ASCS Sprint Cars, the LSDCC.com Dwarf Cars, Performance Transmissions raceTX.com Limited Modifieds, Cowtown Bombers and Winged 600’s will round out the racing action. Each of those classes will be racing for additional purse money.

 

But the fun doesn’t stop there.

 

Palm Harbor Homes ( www.PalmHarbor.com ) will host another of their Family Fun nights featuring frenzied wheel-spinning prizes, a variety of www.lang14.com racing souvenirs – and the catalyst for bringing the evening’s 50/50 drawing to dizzying heights…possibly over the $1,000 mark, which happened on two PHH Family Fun nights at Cowtown in 2009. You will want to make sure you stop by their display located behind the grandstand to get in on the action.
