It’s not the regular season opener, but it is still a great chance for race car owners and drivers to try out their new race cars or to see if more perfecting is in order to make previous year cars run a little faster.   It will also be great for fans who have been away from their weekly racing fixes to get their initial 2011 dose of racing action.

What am I talking about?  It’s the Winter Spectacular which will be held on Saturday, January 22nd at Citrus County Speedway in Inverness, FL.

Practice will be from 5:00 to 8:00 PM on Friday night, January 21 and then the races will be held on Saturday the 22nd and will show case the:

Super Late Models – 100 laps

Street Stocks – 50 laps

Pure Stocks – 50 laps

SS/PS Figure 8 – 25 laps

Outlaw Modified Minis – 35 laps

The new 2011 rules will be in effect for all divisions.
