BACK TO THIS SUNDAY NIGHT 5/27:
Kilgore, TX (05/21/18) by DarinShort.com. The Sunday of Memorial Day weekend has been a popular race date on the LoneStar Speedway schedule for several years, and this year’s holiday event will be jam packed full of racing action. The big LoneStar Modifieds, Factory Stocks, Limited Modifieds & FWD 4-Cylinders are all competing for excellent purse money and points.
But that’s nowhere near the end of the full night of racing scheduled:
The TWMA vs. ALTWMA Shootout will feature the best Winged Modifieds of the region, and those teams will compete in a complete program of heat races and championship feature. Visit www.texaswingmodifiedassociation.com for complete Series information.
And May 27th marks the first ‘LoneStar Speedway Championship’ of 2018, which are four individual nights that feature a LSS division racing for big money and the championship title. On Sunday May 27th it will be the Front Wheel Drive 4-Cylinders turn, and their championship event will now be $800 to the winner (with $50 just to start!), so you can expect to see lots of drivers from across the region trying to take this big prize and the spoils back home at the end of the night.
Special thanks to FRANKLIN MOTORSPORTS (Bryan Franklin), GOODIN MOVING SOLUTIONS (Tommy Goodin) and DC Motorsports (Chris Akers and Daniel Washburn) for each adding $100 to the 4-Cyl Championships winners purse!
