We have made the decision to try Friday night racing. With this move we will be able to run Sprint cars more often. Also we are going to run Sportsman cars on a trial basis. A full revised schedule will be posted on our website later this week. All special shows will remain as scheduled.
 
Yes, we will be starting at 730. We will hold pill draw until we start hotlaps, but if anyone isnt gonna make it on time, they can call and we will draw a pill for them. We will do everything we can to accomodate racers.
 
We run UMP modifieds, limited mods, street stock, and pro-4 on a weekly basis. Friday June 7th we are running UMP sportsman on a trial basis. We also run Crate Late Models and Sprint cars on alternating weeks.
At this time, sportsman will basically on allied rules. Cast iron 362 c.i., flat tops, no roller cams, guage legal 2 barrel, oem type transmission. The only thing really different is the compression rule, we dont have a way to check it, therefore it cant be enforced. We do have a bore scope to look at top of pistons though.

Is there a revised schedule posted showing when you'll be running sprints on Friday nights? Reading the posts it seems confusing as to what classes are running and which nights you are running. The schedule on the web site looks like the old Saturday night schedule. Maybe I am just over looking it? Sprints or late models on 6/7? Thanks
 
Friday June 7th, Crates, UMP mods, UMP sportsman, limited mods, street stocks, and Pro-4. Racing starts at 730. Sprints will be back on June 14th. Sorry bout the schedule, I have it done, just need to get it posted. With paducah closing and all the extra calls we have had, we have been trying to decide what to do with certain classesto improve our car counts and give some of thosr guys another place to race.
