Florence Motor Speedway Ready to kick off 2012 Season
Timmonsville, SC -- FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Timmonsville, SC (March 3rd, 2012) It is almost time to return to the four tenths of a mile speedplant, the Florence Motor Speedway! Thats right, racing is just around the corner and fans and drivers can see the off season coming to a close very soon.
The action begins on March 31st, with opening night for all divisions. The Limited Late Models, Super Stock, Street Stock, Stock 4 Cylinders, Bombers and Cruzer Bruzers will all be running that Saturday night.
Pit gates open at 1:00 PM, with rotating practice throughout the afternoon. Racing will begin at 8:00 PM with heat races for the Super Stock, Street Stock and Stock 4 Cylinders.
We plan to continue on the success of 2011, and fans and drivers can expect some of the best racing around to continue in 2012. said track owner and promoter Charlie Powell.
Admission to the grandstand will be just ten dollars. The ten dollar pit pass will be delayed for the moment as a few issues are being worked out. We will announce when it will return at a later date.
Open practice for all divisions will be March 25th & 26th from 11 AM to 6 PM each day.
The track has also purchased a bar code scanner and program that will allow officials to track what tires the competitors are using. This will eliminate the possibility of somebody competing without a tire that was not issued to their car for the race.
"I feel this will be one of the best investments we have made in recent years. To keep a level field of race cars."
"The scanner should eliminate any doubt that a racer is getting beat on tires." continued Powell.
The track is also stocked with over eight hundred like new tires.
We are also excited to welcome back the Super Trucks to track in 2012. They will return on May 26th, August 4th and September 15th.
The go-karts will continue to race year round every Saturday and admission will continue at ten dollars.
