TEXARKANA, Ark. (October 24, 2024) There is a benefit to entering the 37th annual Short Track Nationals early, and that is about to expire as the early entry deadline is Friday, October 25.

Drivers who enter before the Friday deadline will receive a weekend pit pass with their $100 entry fee. After that date, the entry is $150 and will not include a pit pass. Online registration is at https://tinyurl.com/32etz9rx.

Moving the needle to 31 entries for the $ 20,000-to-win affair, the latest group of drivers includes Kasey Kahne, who finished the 2024 season 14th in Kabota High Limit standings, as well as Oklahoma's Harli White, who remains the only woman to ever top the American Sprint Car Series National Tour.

Returning to his own car a little over a month ago, Tennessee's Howard Moore will be on hand, along with Vado Speedway Park regular Aydan Saunders.
