For Immediate release

Bo Lockwood Motorsports

Thunder Mountain Speedway

 

Brookville, PA (6/8/2015) Effective immediately: Thunder Mountain Speedway will be removing the Front Wheel drive class from their weekly card. Recent weeks has shown a lack of support in this entry level class. All drivers will receive their accumulated points fund money enclosed in their pay from the last event. Additionally the FWD payoff will not be sacrificed as it has been added to both the Warrior Sprint and Open Stock classes. Warrior sprints will now pay $500 to win $400 for second and $300 for third. Open Stock will now enjoy a raised first place prize of $400. As a bonus Thunder Mountain Speedway will also offer a Dash-For-Cash each week that will rotate among its classes. Officials and spectators will pick the class and its competitors previous to the start of the event.  This Dash-For-Cash will be a quick five lap event that will pay $100 to the winner. This Friday 6/12/2015 The Pittsburgh Circle Track Club will be joining the speedway. All club members will enjoy their benefits as well as great side by side racing all night. Gates open at 5pm as Hot laps roll off at 7:15. For more information please visit www.blmotorsports.net

Good to see a promoter dropping a class that wasn't providing decent car counts!!  As I have said before, most tracks have too many classes!!!  And great to see Lockwood putting the money into other classes by upping their purse!!

 

GOOD RACING TO ALL!!

See, someone IS listening and trying to help the racers. Now, as drivers and fans, go support the place! Pure stock drivers better start supporting or they'll be next.

1 foot in front of the other. Keep it up and others will see the path your walking. A professional promoter looking out for racers and fans.

Pure stocks will grow if the rules are kept the same and enforced. There are a lot of ppl can't afford to compete competitively with open stocks and would drop down if they knew the class was going to be around JMHO

Very professional move.

I agree with jimmy. Good point as well as they put on a decent show with the few cars they had. Last couple laps got exciting last week for them. I would like to see 15 of those there. Would be interesting to see 20 sprints at that place too.!

Please have a 410 show! This place is awsome for the sprints
