Officials from the ARCA Midwest Tour presented by SCAG Power Equipment and Lester Buildings along with the ARCA/CRA Super Series have released both entries for the “first ever” combination race between the ARCA Midwest Tour and the ARCA/CRA Super Series. Both series, labeled as the leaders in super late model short track racing, will bring an extreme amount of talent together on opening day April 20th at Toledo Speedway.
Both series have agreed to combine on two occasions with the first event kicking off at Toledo and the following event taking place at Madison International Speedway in Oregon WI on August 11th.
“Steve and I have worked very hard with Glenn Luckett and RJ Scott to make sure we can successfully bring together both series without any major changes. This is a historic movement in short track racing by bringing the two series together and we look forward to what the future holds. Our relationship with ARCA is forming very nicely and we are proud to be a part of such a great event with such a fine organization,” said series President, Tim Olson.
Both series will have their own entry form for their respective competitors and geographical locations. Special provisions and weights for the ARCA Midwest Tour and ARCA/CRA Super Series are posted on each entry form. All technical questions can be answered by contacting Tim Olson and Mike Lemke from the ARCAMT or RJ Scott and Eddie Chew from ARCA/CRA.
“We are really looking forward to these awesome events”, remarked Glenn Luckett, Managing Partner of CRA. “We have been talking with Steve Einhaus and Tim Olson for years about doing a race together, and we have now finally got it done, which was a natural thing to do under our mutual ARCA banner! It has been great working together with everyone on these events, we see great things coming from these events for this season and for the future!”
