The second half of season gets off to Fast start!! Literally. What a way to kick off the second half of the season than with the fastest cars you’ll ever see on the half mile oval. The Winged Sprint Cars from the TBARA will roll into town to headline this Friday’s racing action. The Tampa Bay Area Racing Association has been providing fans with great racing since 1973. A stellar field of cars are expected for this week’s trip to the Gulf Coast, with doubleheader action both Friday night here at 5 Flags, and on Saturday night at Mobile International Speedway. Points leader Shane Butler will lead the brigade, along with Sprint Car legend Dave Steele, Gulfport Mississippi’s Todd Fayard, and a slew of others. Track Records are on the line, so be sure to arrive early to catch time trials.<\/p>\n
Along with Friday’s Sprint Car action, the Sportsman and Bombers will have a full program of heat and feature events, and the Super Stocks will partake in a special non points Black Flag Race. And to make the night a totally rewarding experience, it’s our Annual “Meet the Driver’s Night”, an event met with great reviews year after year. At the conclusion of Time Trials on Friday, all the cars, in all the divisions will be lined up on the front straightaway. Race Fans will be allowed to go down on the track to meet the drivers up close and personal. Fans can expect autograph cards and many other items of interest to be provided by their favorite drivers. It should be a lot of fun so again, plan to arrive early.<\/p>\n
The points races have tightened up in every division, so, hang on as we head towards our respective Season Championship races. You don’t want to miss a single lap of the action. It will keep you on the edge of your seat. It’s why 5 Flags Speedway has come to be known as “AMERICA’S FAVORITE HOME TRACK!!<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" From Tim Bryant The second half of season gets off to Fast start!!
