Thumbs up SSSSA Race #2 & 3 Moved To Lakeland Dragstrip!

Due to a schedule change with Bradenton Motorsports Park and right on the heels of a very successful points race #1 at Orlando Speed World, May 26 & 27, 2012 will see the SSSSA return to Lakeland Dragstrip for points race #2 & 3! This is where it all began for the SSSSA! This will be a two day, two race weekend. There will be a $1000 dollar to win bracket race Saturday evening after our race that our racers are encouraged to enter. Sunday there will also be a bracket race sponsored by the track that our racers will be able to enter. Jim Woods and I visited the track and met with the new owner and manager. the improvements the new owner has made is very visible and I'm sure everyone will be pleased with all the changes. New starting line that HOOKS! New bathrooms. The tower and track have been painted and upgraded. New track equipment. All new wiring an brand new clocks and timing equipment. Ample staff and EMT/Fire unit on duty. Lakeland Dragstrip has just been sanctioned back with the IHRA and will host a Division two ProAm race next year. Gates open at 9am on Saturday, 10am on Sunday. $15 per head at the gate. At least two Q passes and a cleanup. The usual $50 to race with 100% payback.
