The 30-lap T.P. Trailer Modified feature held-over from the May 11 program will be added to this show along with the first visit of the year for the Outlaw Racing Series Vintage cars.
The held-over 30-lap T.P. Trailer Modified feature will be the first Modified event during the program, so fans need to arrive early so as not to miss any of the double-feature race action.
All of this action will be conducted for the regular admission prices, with adult grandstand admission at $20, students 10-15 with ID are $10, while children ages 9 and under are admitted free of charge. Pit admission is $35 for NASCAR members and $45 for non-members.
