Kilgore, TX (8/26/13) by DarinShort.com. The Modified competitors at the upcoming $27,000 David Pope Memorial at RPM Speedway in Crandall, Texas on September 7th will have one extra carrot dangling in front of them. The RPM Modified feature winner will be awarded a guaranteed provisional starting position into the championship feature of the $10,000 to win DAY Motorsports Armadillo Nationals at LoneStar Speedway (LSS), set for September 28th.
The winning RPM driver must enter the LSS Armadillo event and attempt to qualify through the normal procedures, and if they come up short, LSS track officials will add the RPM Modified winner as a provisional starter - which also will add $500 for the 25th place position.
The $10,000 to win DAY Motorsports Armadillo Nationals will be held September 26-28. Online registration is currently open at the event website, www.darinshort.com/arm.html and is ongoing through Tuesday of race week, September 24th. The Modifieds, Factory Stocks and Limited Modifieds will compete in qualifying races Thursday September 26th and Friday September 27th. Their last chance qualifiers and championship feature events will be contested on September 28th. The Modifieds will be racing for $10,000 to win and $500 to start (24th), while the Limited Modifieds will have a winner’s check of $3,000 awaiting them, and the Factory Stocks will be gunning for $2,000 to win.
