(10.27.10 – New Smyrna Speedway) FASCAR Officials and New Smyrna Speedway Management are excited to announce that the purse for the 45th Annual Florida Governor\u2019s Cup presented by Bright House Networks has been increased from $275.00 to start to $600.00 to start thanks to the Lap Money that has already been collected.<\/div>\n

Laps are still being sold for the November 20th race for $100.00ea., with 100% of the lap money collected being distributed throughout the field. To date, only 67 of the 200 laps have been sold.<\/p>\n

The Purse as of the date of this press release will pay $5,000.00 to the winner and the entire purse will be increased as additional laps are sold.<\/p>\n

Lap Sponsors will receive mentions over the PA throughout the two-day event as well as listing in the Official Souvenir Program and on the Lap Sponsor Sign located at the main entrance to the Speedway.<\/p>\n

In addition to the Purse increase, Officials also announced a Format Change that is intended to help reduce some of the costs associated with a 200 lap race. Instead of live Pit Stops requiring full pit crews, this year\u2019s event will feature a half-way break to allow teams to change tires, add fuel, and make any adjustments they need to their cars.<\/p>\n

Fans will also enjoy a first-ever unobstructed view of the racing surface for Saturday night\u2019s events as all race cars will be pitted outside of the infield for the first time ever, utilizing the turn four and backstretch pit areas. The infield will be used as a last resort for overflow for open trailers only, allowing fans in almost any seat to view the entire high-banked half-mile surface.<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s Florida Governor\u2019s Cup Weekend will once again feature a two-day format with the 50 Lap Limited Late Model race presented by Discount Propane and 25 lap features for the Mini-Stocks, Super Stocks and E-Modifieds on Friday night November 19th with practice rounds for the Super Late Models throughout the night. Then on Saturday November 20th the 45th Annual Florida Governor\u2019s Cup 200 for the Super Late Models presented by Bright House Networks along with 25 lap features for the Sportsman, Pro-Trucks and Strictly Stocks.<\/p>\n
