Cowtown Sprint Nationals Entries Surpass ‘50’ Mark
Kennedale TX (9/23/09) by DarinShort.com. With the event date of October 9-10 still over two weeks out, the sprint car early entry list is now in excess of 50 for the Cowtown Sprint Nationals (CSN) presented by ShopTheBoss.com and Lone Star Speedway. The $85,000 event is set for October 9-10 at Cowtown Speedway and features the stars and cars of the ASCS Lone Star, Gulf South and Sooner regions. Plus, several Lucas Oil National ASCS Sprint Series drivers have entered, as their schedule is ‘off’ that weekend.
Driver entries from 10 states have been received; spanning from Springfield Illinois to Springfield Nebraska to Albuquerque New Mexico to Thibodaux Louisiana – and many points in between.
It’s very important that drivers pre-register for this event, as it reserves them a pit space and helps the race track put together the jigsaw puzzle of large tow rigs in the pit area; and helps the announcers to keep fans better informed. Premium spots in the pits are going fast, and phone in reservations are not accepted. Only drivers that are pre-registered will be assigned pit space. Those spaces will be staked with the driver’s name on them on practice night, October 8thor when they arrive on October 9th.
Drivers not pre-registering will be parked wherever the track deems best on race night, so it can best assemble the ‘jigsaw’ puzzle of assorted tow rig and trailer sizes.
Also teams competing in the Topless 100 for Modifieds, Topless Limited Modifieds and Winged 600 Championships should also continue to get preregistered. The early entry deadline for those divisions saves $25 and that promotion expires on October 4th.
To pre-enter, please go to http://www.CowtownSpeedway.com then click on the “Nationals” link on the home page. Scroll down the Nationals page and there you will see the quick, 2-step registration process. The cutoff for preregistration is October 4. At that point, the pit parking chart will go from ‘penciled’ in to ‘inked.’
The track is expecting a field of 60-80 sprint teams, and nearly 200 cars total by race time, which will make for a very full pit area.
