the outlaws have certain restrictions and prohibited to race at non WoO sanctioned events because they would lose points. so it is doubtful you would see any of the top 10 in points.

Exactly the reason I hope the people who run the WOO choke on a bag of Dix

Cool to see this.
Tri-City Speedway PA)Tri-City Speedway in Franklin, PA will have a new owner. It is a high-banked, big 1/2 mile track with first class facilities that has seen a rough decade. In 2014 the track will operate for 5 nights of special racing, the "Sizzlin' Summer Series" of events that would include a Sunday night date in May, June, July, August, and September. The Sizzlin' Summer Series would function as an independent series that would not only pay the area's best purse on each of the five nights, but would also accumulate a point fund for the division champs and would crown a "King of the Summer" for the top point-earner overall. A Sizzlin' Summer Series event would include overnight camping before and after the event, fireworks, side stage concerts, a flea market, and these divisions: 410 Sprints, BRP Big Block Modifieds, FASTRAK Late Models, and an open stock car division. The Sizzlin' Summer Series purse for the 410's looks like this: 1 - $10,000 2 - $3,500 3- $2,500 4 - $1,000 5 - $900 6 - $800 7 - $700 8 - $600 9 - $500 10 - $400 11 through 20 - $300 21 through 30 - $225 30+ - $200


They starting 30 cars in the Sprint Feature? or 30+? lol

$10,000 to win. Should be quite a 100 lapper. Just like the old days, the Northern 100.

The sale of the track would definitely be a good thing, but this deal gets a little sketchier every day. There is no private sale as it looked like early on. Now we find out the property will be sold at sheriff sale on Feb 19th. So nothing is cast in stone. What if a Marcellus Driller gets wind of the sale? This property would make a great headquarters for them me the price is very attractive for such a venture.

Right the sale is to recover money for Roger Crick. To recover his money the track is what is being sold at the sheriff sale. Maybe Thomas is confident he will outbid all comers and pay whatever it takes at the Sheriff Sale. The timing of all the events doesn't make much sense. All Incan figure is a lot of properties do get sold before the sheriff sale.

The way I understand it, it is pretty much a done deal. FASTRAK is very excited about working with the new owner and I believe crate late model racers will be excited to hear about events (as well as purses!) he will be offering. Billed as the "Sizzlin' Summer Series", dirt race fans are in for a treat! More details to follow...:) Jimmy Henry FASTRAK NE Tour

I was in the Franklin office yesterday and had some time to kill. So i ran over to the sheriff's office. They told me there was a lot of people asking for information on the sale. The strange thing though, was that they told me the sale on the 19th was realestate only, no equipment. there would be a separate sale of the equipment on a different day. They were not sure of the day though. Now I am really confused!! What do you think now Joe? Give me a call over the weekend. JMO

Sorry, I'm not at liberty to release that information but as soon as it is certain, there will be a press release.

I can't wait to tell you what's in store for racers and fans---particularly FASTRAK teams. :)
