 |
The open practice sessions will be open to all classes of karts and quarter midgets. On the Saturday, April 4 Open Practice Sessions, the back gate on Kise Mill Road (exit gate during Outback Track races) will open at 11:00 a.m., with practice from 12:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. On Wednesday night, April 8, the back gate will open at 5:30 p.m. with practice from 6:30 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. The cost is $20.00 per driver (who practices on the track) and no charge for anyone else entering the pit area for the open practice sessions.
The first race of the 9-race Spring Shoot-Out Series will be Friday night's racing events, the pit gates will open 5:00 p.m. with a driver's meeting at 6:30 p.m. Open practice begins at 6:45 p.m. and racing action begins at 7:15 p.m. There will be no sanctioning body affiliation for either karts or quarter midgets, but the technical/specification rules will be very similar to the major sanctioning groups for these types of cars (W.K.A. and QMA). The entry fees for each class will be $15.00 per entry and participants may enter more than one class on a raceday ($12.00 for each additional class). Trophies will be awarded to the top three in each class. No participants will be denied racing as SSP will make every effort to define a class for all drivers who wish to compete.
