RPM 7/5: Sprints, Mods, Stocks & STEM Series to Light Up the Track!

7/1/13 (Crandall, TX) by DarinShort.com. Coming off of a great night of racing last Friday, there's no slowing the pace down when racing takes to the 1/4 mile dirt this Friday July 5th; as six exciting classes of racing are scheduled at RPM Speedway in Crandall, Texas.

The fast paced racing program will include the RaceSaver Sprint Cars, USRA Modifieds, Limited Modifieds, Street Stocks and Factory Stocks - which will all be racing heats and features.

The traveling Southern Topless Economy Modified (STEM) series will round out the 6-division racing card with their first visit to RPM in 2013.

Also scheduled to make a welcome return to RPM Speedway is a perfect weather forecast for racing. At the time of writing, race time temperatures in the mid-80's are forecast.

Here are the racing highlights for Friday July 5th:

-The RaceSaver Sprint Cars will be racing for $500 to win and $140 to start the feature. Any non-qualifiers will receive $100.

-The USRA Modifieds ($600/win and $100/start), Limited Modifieds ($500/win), Street Stocks ($400/win) and Factory Stocks ($300/win) will all run heats and features. There are no entry fees in any division.
Reminder to Factory Stock teams: powerglide transmissions are legal - as long as the car races with asphalt pull off tires on all four corners.

Here is the schedule for Friday July 5th:

PIT GATE OPENS at 5:30pm

GRANDSTANDS OPEN at 6pm

MANDATORY* WHEEL PACKING 7pm (ALL CARS, ALL CLASSES)

DRAW CUT OFF & HOT LAPS at 7:30pm SHARP

REGULAR GRANDSTAND TICKET PRICES ($12 for adults) and pit passes ($30 for all ages) are in effect, with no driver entry fees in any division.

*Mandatory Wheel Packing from 7-7:30 for all cars in all classes. If your car does not wheel pack by 7:30 (at the time of the draw cutoff), you will start your heat race at the tail of the field and there are no passing points for those drivers. This applies to all drivers in all race divisions.
