Saturday May 27 the Bob Weikert Memorial will pay $5000 to the winner of the 410 sprint car feature and $400 to take the green and the Super Late Model feature will pay $3000 to the winner and $300 to take the green.
Sunday May 28 the 410 sprint car feature will pay $10,000 to the winner and $500 to take the green along with the URC Sprints who will be running for $2000 to win.
This is going to be a show you don't want to miss.

Glad Port Royal went back to a 2 day race weekend. Three days was pushing it and the chances of getting all three days in weatherwise was always a gamble. Circled on my calander.Should be a good one.

I miss the $15,000 to win 1 day All-Star sanctioned show. That was one I looked forward too. Not sure why they decided to water it down, drop the all-stars and drag it out a few days. If it ain't broke.....

Wonder what Port is charging for these two shows ,havent been able to find a price any where,heard they may be charging $50 for the Tuscarora which will be ok for die hard fans but to much for locals that just go for the Fair races.
Kings Royal is only $35 AND Grove National $35 and they both pay $50 GRAND TO WIN ALSO so they should look at all things and not hurt themselves by charging to much.
$20 and $22 would be fair prices for the Weikert Weekend considering Todd is footing alot of the bill.
Should be good racing with Marks,Dewease and hopefully Gravel after Charolett.

In an interview I heard I think on MRN where Brent Marks seemed kinda wishy washy on running the Weikert Memorial. Seemed like he wanted to but didn't know if it was feasible. Don't know if anything has changed since that point in time.

i'm sure he would love to run Port both days,but wouldn't want to sacrafice not having fresh equipment ready once they head west for Memorial Day's Lawrenceburg WoO race.You need to be loaded for bear if you want to make the efforts worthwhile for your rookie WoO season.Brent ,his team and family are a great group of people.Best of luck to them on the WoO trail and 2017 racing season.

$25 each night for the Weikert.
$50 for the 50?? Kiss my dick. I highly doubt that's the case though, but if it is, I'll be missing my first 50 in a while.

"Heard"?
Heard from who? Everyone "hears" things and then the rumors start. Why not just ask Port Royal Instead of bashing them and assume it's $50 to get in.
Who is your source?

The admission price for the Tuscarora 50 has not been decided yet but it will not be more than $35 and the admission for the Bob Weikert Memorial is $25 each night. Longtimemitchfan I'm not sure where you are getting your info but you might want to find a new source.

Personally, I don't feel 35.00 is out of line for this race. Your going to see 1 of the most competitive starting fields at one of the finest 1/2 mile tracks in the country.
