A much more
suitable forecast is set for the final 'Thunder' round this Saturday,
August 25th at LoneStar Speedway....over $6,000 cash is posted for
STS/RaceSaver Sprint teams alone, and the feature pays $200 to start
(24th).
Current forecasts show daytime highs of 91 degrees with a slight chance
of isolated t-storms, and race time (8pm) temperatures in the low to mid
80's...which is much better than the 110 degree heat index of the
previous LSS event.
Joining the STS series will be the final appearance of the fully powered
Ark-La-Tex Winged Modifieds, $1,000 to win Modifieds, $500 to win
Limited Modifieds and $300 to win Factory Stocks.

Kilgore TX (7/19/12) by DarinShort.com. The popular final round of
“Thunder on the High Banks” for Southern Thunder Sprints (STS) event
scheduled for August 11th at LoneStar Speedway (LSS) has been moved to
August 25th which includes the existing program of Ark-La-Tex Winged
Modified Series.
Although there will be no racing at LSS on
August 11th, it will make for a great night of action packed racing on
August 25th, as the three LSS points divisions will also be racing that
night; with $1,000 to win Modifieds, $500 to win for the Limited
Modifieds and $300 to win for the Factory Stocks.
A reminder that
STS is RaceSaver® sanctioned, and drivers can also choose to run the
Southern Thunder Sprint (STS) or Sprint Series of Texas (SST) right rear
tire – and that goes for all remaining RaceSaver Sprint events at
LoneStar in 2012. This is the final “Thunder on the High Banks” series
events scheduled for 2012 at LSS.
Fans can expect STS drivers
including: Alan Myers, Cody Harger, Cody Robbins, Marty Hargroeder, Ty
Johnson, Regan Hawkins, Matt Ebarb, Koty Adams, David Forbis & a
