Castrol FloRacing Night in America
Castrol FloRacing Night in America Invades Fairbury this Tuesday
AUSTIN, Texas (September 12, 2022) — Castrol® FloRacing Night in America invades Fairbury (Ill.) Speedway for the third annual One for the Road presented by I-Beam Sliding Doors this Tuesday, September 13.
The night’s program is headlined by a $22,022-to-win / $1,000-to-start Super Late Model finale. Sharing the spotlight will be a complete $1,500-to-win DIRTcar UMP Modified event.
The Tuesday night extravaganza will mark the sixth round of the 2022 campaign for the miniseries. Through five events there have been five different winners this season with Jonathan Davenport, Kyle Larson, Brandon Sheppard, Dennis Erb Jr., and Hudson O’Neal going to Victory Lane.
Sheppard currently sits atop the latest series standings with Hudson O’Neal and Mike Marlar both 78 markers behind the leader as they sit tied for the second position. Tyler Erb, Ricky Thornton Jr., Bobby Pierce, Stormy Scott, Ryan Gustin, Garrett Alberson, and Ashton Winger round out the Top 10 in the latest series standings.
A driver’s best ten finishes count toward the series championship.
Meanwhile, the traveling contingent will face arguably one of the toughest regional and local contingents they’ll face all year. Mike Spatola won the Fairbury Speedway track championship for the second-straight year with Ryan Unzicker, Kevin Weaver, Jake Little, McKay Wenger, Scott Schmitt, Tommy Sheppard Jr., Derek Chandler, Mike Provenzano, and Glen Thompson rounded out the Top 10.
The 2022 Castrol® FloRacing Night in America pays $75,000 to the champion if the driver has perfect attendance. If the tour champion doesn't have perfect attendance, the points fund reverts to the originally announced $30,000 for the title from a total point’s fund of $85,250.
Castrol® FloRacing Night in America returns to action on Tuesday, September 13 at Fairbury (Ill.) Speedway with the $22,022-to-win / $1,000-to-start, One for the Road presented by I-Beam Sliding Doors.
