Race Purse Increased-Format Changed for the U.S. Prostock/Super Late Model National Championship Race

By admin April 21, 2016 Seekonk

Race Promoter Kraze Korlacki Speed Equipment, Inc., enthusiastically announces that the race purse & format for the U.S. Prostock/Super Late Model National Championship Race has been changed. “We listened to the input of the racing teams from Seekonk,

PASS, and the Granite State Prostocks, and made what we consider to be the appropriate changes in the best interest of the competitors and the fans to promote a better race; we thank them in advance for their contributions”. These changes include:

The field of cars is reduced from 26 to 24 with promoters option to increase if needed.
Increased race purse for positions 2-10, the payout is listed through position 24.
The race winner will be the competitor who takes the checkered flag at Lap 200; We ELIMINATED the previous format of the average finish of Segments 1 & 2.
The fans will “vote” for or against inverting part of the field between segments. This will occur as part of the pre-race ceremonies which will involve the fans in the format of the race.
If the fans “vote” to invert part of the field, the maximum number will be 5. A fan will pull a chip which will determine if we invert 1,2,3,4, or 5- announced at intermission.

The increased purse is now $42,160 guaranteed by the race promoter. We are selling sponsorship laps @$25 per lap, which will increase the total race purse to $47,160.

Please review the format we have selected for the sponsorship laps. The race is Wednesday, July 13, 2016, with the rain date of Thursday, July 14, 2016. Gates open @4pm, time trials for heat positions @4:30 – racing @6pm. All information concerning this race may be obtained at www.seekonkspeedway.com.
