"I thank them for there participation in the 1st annual event, and hopefully if they can work out there differences and increase their car counts we can have them back next year". Rick is working with a couple other groups to possibly run on the Friday night card, that will be announced soon.
One added attraction to the weekend will be a 35 Lap kids truck championship event. The kids will qualify for the Pole Friday night after the qualifying for the 200. They will then open the show Saturday Night with a 35 Lap ( 30min ) championship race. That race also now has a sponsor, it will be " The Ramm Transport Kids Championship 35". " I want to thank Richard Cohen for stepping up once again this year. He sponsored pole night last year and now jumps on board to help sponsor the kids race. I appreciate his heart for kids" added Bristol.
Friday night will be "Tampa Bay Truck Wash Pole Night" as earlier released. It will feature qualifying for the Biscayne Roofing Charity Truckers 200 Pole and to lock in the top 20 trucks. Then the Kids will qualify for the pole of the " Ramm Transport Kids Championship 35". Another division yet to be announced will then race and then the final race of the night will be a " $500 Winner Take all 30 Lap Strictly Stock Championship" followed by a BBQ, Music and a possible Celebrity Auction.
Saturday Night will feature a huge autograph session, from 5:30 - 6:30.
