$72,000 Armadillo Nat'ls NEXT WEEK: ENTER NOW & SAVE $

Kilgore TX (9/16/14) by DarinShort.com. Next week, one of the most exciting three days of racing of the year will take place with the running of the $72,000 Armadillo Nationals at LoneStar Speedway (LSS) in Kilgore Texas. The Armadillo Nationals will be held September 25-27, 2014; presented by DAY Motorsports, Smiley’s Racing Products and Blaine’s Motor Supply.

Tuesday night, September 23rd is the final date you can enter online, which saves you $25 over race night pricing - plus guarantees your team non-qualifier money if you don't make the championship event.

By clicking http://www.darinshort.com/arm.html you can view the event flyer, preregister your car, purchase 3-day pit passes, review the rules, area hotels, check out the LoneStar Campground and much more. Campers have already reserved their space from as far away as New Orleans area!

Modifieds will be racing for $10,000 to win and $500 to start (24th). The Limited Modified feature winner will take home $3,000, and the first Factory Stock to take the checkers will now receive $3,000; as Michael and Lisa Jones of Jones Motorsports have injected $1,000 cash to the winner.

A super-sized competitor purse is being offered – yet without excessive entry fee or pit pass costs for the drivers, plus a great 3-day pass offer for the race fans.

DAY Motorsports Modifieds Saturday Feature Payback (50 Laps): $10,000-5,000-3,000-2,000-1,600-1,200-1,000-900-820-780-740-700-660-620-600-580-560-540-520-500...to 24th. Early online entry $80 through 9/23/14, and it guarantees teams of a minimum of $150 in non-qualifier money if they do not make the championship event. Early entry runs through Tuesday night, September 23rd (two days before the race). Entries received at the track are $25 higher and are not guaranteed non-qualifier money.

Smiley’s Racing Products Limited Modified Saturday Feature (30 Laps): $3,000-1,500-1,000-800-700-600-500-400-380-360-340-320-300-280-260-240...to 24th. Early online entry $55 through 9/23/14, and it guarantees teams of a minimum of $125 in non-qualifier money if they do not make the championship event. Early entry runs through Tuesday night, September 23rd (two days before the race). Entries received at the track are $25 higher and are not guaranteed non-qualifier money.

Blaine’s Motor Supply Factory Stock Saturday Feature (30 Laps): $3,000-1,300-1,000-800-700-600-500-400-380-360-340-320-300-280-260-240...to 24th. Early Factory Stock pre-entry is $55, and it guarantees teams of a minimum of $100 in non-qualifier money if they do not make the championship event. Early entry runs through Tuesday night, September 23rd (two days before the race). Entries received at the track are $25 higher and are not guaranteed non-qualifier money.

Driver entries have now been received from within a 1,150 mile swath of land between the TX/NM border and the MS/AL border.

Race teams are required to read the rules section prior to race weekend so they are familiar with the unique qualifying format.

The 2013 event saw incredible racing on all three nights, with 169 race teams from 11 states participating in the fast-paced, three-division program.

All three LSS points divisions will again be in action over the three day extravaganza, which utilizes a very exciting and fan-friendly format. The drivers really enjoyed our Armadillo format last year and it will be exactly the same in 2014.

All cars must be LSS legal, and track points will be awarded. All drivers will receive 25 track points for participating in the Armadillo Nationals. There is no car registration fee due if your team is not a LSS point’s driver.

All divisions will be scored electronically, to ensure promptness and accurateness. A one-time transponder rental fee of $25 per car for the race weekend will be charged upon your arrival to the track on race night. Drivers will also receive a smart phone link that will allow them to see real-time lineups and results.

Pit passes are at regular prices for qualifying nights, $30. Championship night pit passes are $35. However, you can purchase a 3-day pit pass on the event website for $90. 3-day online pit passes will be on sale through Sept. 23.

Ticket prices to this event are very affordable – and are available on race nights only. No advance tickets will be sold. On Thursday and Friday, it’s just $12 for adult general admission, while the Saturday night championship is $20. Seniors/active military can enjoy the racing action for $10 each on Thursday and Friday, with $18 tickets on Saturday. Youth ages 6 to 11 are $5 each night. Seating in the reserved section is a $5 upgrade to any ticket on each night.

New for 2014: Three-Day General Admission Grandstand Pass is just $35! That’s right, you can get in to see all three nights of the $10,000 to win Armadillo Nationals for less than going to three regularly priced LSS events! There are no advance ticket sales to this event, and you can purchase your three-day armband when you arrive to the speedway on opening night of the event, September 25th.

Complete division rules are posted at the track website. An event flyer has been posted under the ‘resources’ section of the track website as well.

Here is the basic event structure for all three divisions for the LoneStar Armadillo Nationals:

-This is not a ‘split field’ qualifying format. Meaning, all cars race all three days. Your highest point total on Thursday OR Friday will be used to determine your Saturday night lineup. Except, the top 4 finishers in the Thu/Fri A-features will automatically lock in the front four rows of the Saturday night feature. The next six positions in the Saturday finale will be locked in by the top six drivers in points (from Thursday or Friday points). The balance of the cars in each division will go directly into two B-features (and possibly C-feature). A total of 10 cars total will advance from the B-features to the A-feature. Nightly heat races will be draw for position with finishing position and passing points being awarded. There is no penalty whatsoever for racing both Thursday and Friday night. We encourage drivers to race all three nights.

-Electronic timing and scoring will be used for all divisions. A one-time $25 transponder rental fee is due at sign in. This will ensure all teams being scored to the best that is possible, along with having live lineups and results quickly available for all of the teams and fans to keep tabs on their smart phones during the event. Professional Motor Sports Solutions of Charlotte, NC is providing timing and scoring throughout the weekend, as they have the past three years.

Here are some quick facts for the Sept. 25-27th LoneStar Armadillo Nationals:

- Pits open at 4pm (most likely earlier on Thursday), Grandstands open at 5pm, Draw cut-off at 6:30pm sharp, Hot laps at 7:00pm, and racing to follow.

-Adult general grandstand admission just $12 on Thursday and Friday, with Saturday’s championship night is $20.
