    2020 MARKETING INFORMATION Pictured: 2019 CARS Tour Old North State Nationals WHAT IS THE CARS TOUR? The CARS Tour was formed out of the former USAR Hooters ProCup Series, long considered the premiere short track development series in the 2000s for drivers looking to advance their careers to the upper levels of NASCAR. Because so many CARS Tour competitors have dreams of competing in NASCAR, the cars raced in the CARS Tour closely resemble the racers seen in NASCAR except with less expensive technology and rules to control costs. The CARS Tour hosts two types of popular pavement short track racing divisions, with most being held as dual division events. This allows fans to catch the action of both the Super Late Model and Late Model Stock divisions racing at the same track on the same night, for the price of just one ticket. Late model stock cars, a machine from which the NASCAR Xfinity Series cars originated in the 1980s and is still popular in the southeast today, weigh in at over 3100 lbs, teaching drivers car control and momentum as they advance their career. The super late model cars boast nearly 600 horsepower and weigh in at less than 2800 lbs, the true speed demons of short track racing where drivers learn to handle large amounts of horsepower. The CARS Tour has attracted teams from across the motorsports industry, including teams competing annually owned by NASCAR notables Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Kyle Busch. In addition the tour has grown on loyal veteran short track drivers that fans have grown accustom to.

  • Stock Car Racing in Virginia: the Sport and the Business
    STOCK CAR RACING IN VIRGINIA: THE SPORT AND THE BUSINESS 110 ■ irtually every popular sport that captures the public imagination boasts V multiple levels of competition. In baseball, for example, competition ranges from sandlots and Little League on up to the minor leagues and Major League Baseball. Car racing is much the same. From the dirt tracks and drag strips to the short tracks and NASCAR, it is a sport enjoyed by many people as spectators and participants, in many different settings. It has evolved into a very big business. For some, car racing is recreational. For others, it is a spectator sport. For still others, it is a money-making business. Some people golf regularly or join a bowling league, while others enjoy tuning their cars and racing them. For many, this is an experience that simply is fun, yet for others it leads to a career or a business. People make significant investments in horses for racing or dogs for showing, while others make truly significant financial investments in race cars. NASCAR, the National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing, is the most prominent organizer of stock car racing. It sanctions 1,500 races annually at 100 tracks in almost 40 states. NASCAR exceeds both golf and tennis in terms of the number of its fans and television viewers, and live audiences can exceed 200,000. Although in recent years attendance has trended downward, NASCAR still asserts that it sponsors a majority of the most-attended single-day sporting events in the world.1 1 “NASCAR,” Wikipedia (accessed May 19, 2016).

  • Technical Bulletin
    TECHNICAL BULLETIN Venues: Ace Speedway, Anderson Motor Speedway, Caraway Speedway, Dominion Raceway, Florence Motor Speedway, Greenville Pickens Speedway, Hickory Motor Speedway, Kingsport Speedway, Larry King Law’s Langley Speedway, Motor Mile Speedway, South Boston Speedway, Tri-County Speedway, Wake County Speedway Division: Late Model Stock Car Effective Date: Aug. 1, 2021 Revised Aug. 13, 2021 Recently, we’ve uncovered numerous chassis issues that cannot be corrected immediately. Therefore, the following adjustments have been put in place to allow such chassis to compete for the remainder of the 2021 season. It is the intent of this group to allow these adjustments in an effort to delay major chassis changes, such as front clip replacements, until after the end of this season. It is therefore also the intent of this group that LMSC builders and teams bring chassis into full compliance with the rules for the 2022 season. These particular chassis are violating the following section of the NASCAR Advance Auto Parts Weekly Series Rule Book. For those tracks not part of the NASCAR Advance Auto Parts Weekly Series, the applicable track rule should be individually referenced. Page 93 | Section 20F – 11.2 Paragraph B. 1.b. b. A removable center section made of three (3) pieces of one (1) inch by one (1) inch by a minimum of 0.120 wall thickness square tubing welded together to form a three (3) inch wide center section. The center section and cross member ends must be reinforced with 3/8 inch thick by three (3) inches wide welded steel plate. A minimum of four (4), 3/8 inch diameter bolts (two (2) on each end) must be used to attach the center section.
