The Punta Gorda Speedway will be in action May 29 for its opening night. On the card will be the Open Wheel Modifieds for a 35 lap feature event. You will pull a pill at sign in for starting position in the heat race and that will determine where you start the feature, for example first heat winner on the pole and 2nd heat winner outside pole and so on.
Goodyear treaded is the tire at $106.00 per tire and will be available for purchase at the speedway. Along with the Modified race we will have the Pro4, Fab4, Dwarf Cars, Road Warriors, Legends, Bandolero’s and Mini Cups.
There is a $5.00 fee for pit slabs on a first come first serve basis, although your overall tow vehicle length will determine your slab location. There will be practice on Friday May 28 for 4 hours 4PM till 8PM free of charge for all classes.

We would also like to announce there will be a new Goodyear points fund put in place that will start May 29 and run thru December 11, 2010. This points fund will be paid at the year end banquet along with embroidered Goodyear jackets to all the champions.
We would like to thank Goodyear for all their support and dedication to the racing community. We look forward to seeing and meeting all the drivers, crews and devoted fans to the new Punta Gorda Speedway in the coming months ahead.
