How do you like your USMTS?
Lots of options over the next 4 weekends! Only thing we can't help you with is the distance.
Last week, 4 $2000 to win Casey's Cup Qualifiers THIS Thursday through Sunday. Starts in central Missouri on Thursday, makes it's way down to northeast Oklahoma on Saturday to Salina High Banks - a great track by the way! - and ends at the closest regular SUNDAY night track (for like 20 years now) in Monett in the southwest corner of Missouri. Each one pays non-licensed drivers $250 just to start the A-main. 1st, 2nd & 3rd all pay the same - $2000-1500-1000 - licensed or not. Other spots do pay more with a USMTS license and start money goes up to $300 per event plus other $$$ and points incentives!
THIS WEEK! -- April 26th-28th -- 3 tracks in the great white north for a combined $12,000 to win over 3 nights! Rice Lake and Fountain City in Wisconsin are the first two followed by an all important visit to Deer Creek Speedway where at the end of July, they will pay $20,000 to win and $1500 just to start at the 2nd annual World Modified Dirt Track Championshps! All three of these pay $4000 to win with $300 to start to non-licensed racers and $400 to start to those with a license.
*** Week 3 -- Combined $8000 to win on May 4th and 5th in western and southern Missouri! The Friday is at LA Raceway not far from Kansas City where they will also be THIS THURSDAY 4/19 for that CCQ ($2000 to win Casey's Cup Qualifier). On the Saturday, they visit one of my all-time favorite race tracks, West Plains Motor Speedway in the foothills of the Ozarks. Both events are National Championship races like the Wisconsin and Deer Creek shows previously mentioned and pay $4000 to win and $300-400 to start. ***
*** If your tow vehicle can squeeze out 8-10 mpg, this is about $250 worth of fuel to do St. Louis - LaMonte - West Plains - St. Louis. Make one A and pay for the fuel. Make the other A and pay for 2 or 3 tires. The upside? $4000 to win and $2200 for SECOND both nights, licensed or NOT! You know you've raced for less!!! At worst you get back 3/4 of the entry fee if you miss both As and then you're out the fuel costs but the tires can be used a lot later on.
Week 4 - Time for some Texas short track action! And thanks to some earlier rainouts, this is now 3 nights that combined will pay $10,000 to win on May 10th-12th! Starts with a $4000 to win/$300-400 to start National Championship Series race at the Heart O' Texas Speedway near Waco on THURSDAY, May 10th. On Friday, they visit the RPM Speedway in Kaufman just southeast of Dallas for a $2000 to win/$250-300 to start CCQ. After last year's SMP race at RPM, can't wait for this one! USMTS wraps it up on Saturday night at Cowtown Speedway near Fort Worth with another $4000 to win/$300-400 to start NCS race!!!
