PORTACOOL™ Texas World Dirt Track Championship Registration Open, New Race Dates!

Ft. Worth TX (3/3/2015) by DarinShort.com. Texas Motor Speedway (TMS) officials are proud to kick off their 2015 dirt racing calendar with the PORTACOOL™ Texas World Dirt Track Championship at the TMS Dirt Track.

The event is scheduled for May 15th and 16th featuring the SUPR Late Models, Modifieds and Limited Modifieds – competing for $75,000 in cash, plus prizes. With the unpredictable early spring weather, track officials have opted for this new date, as compared to the traditional March dates.

And today, at http://www.darinshort.com/world.html online event registration has opened.

At this special registration site, there is a link for each race division to preregister their team, purchase advance 2-day pit passes (saves $10), reserve a paved pit space (while supplies last) and sign up for practice night.

Each of the racing divisions (SUPR Late Models, Modifieds and Limited Modifieds) can save $40/each on their entry by getting registered between now and May 1st. After that date ‘race week’ pricing will be in effect. Car numbers are assigned on a first-come basis, so if there is a number you want, it is a good idea to register as soon as possible for the best chance of getting it.

TMS will add two provisional starters to the Modified and Limited Modified Championship features – but those names will be drawn from pre-entered drivers only, so don't miss out on this second chance! To be considered an “Early Entered Driver” your entry must be received (online or postmarked) by May 1st. The Modified event pays $3,000 to win and $750 to start; while the Limited Modified event pays $2,000 to win and $400 to start.

The P&W Sales SUPR Late Models will have a complete racing program of heats and features on Saturday, May 16th; paying $3,500 to win and $400 to start. A fantastic field of SUPR Late Models are expected, including drivers such as Jonathan Mitchell, Robert Litton, Patrik Daniel, Tyler Erb, Richard Duke Jr, Robbie Stuart, Ronny Adams, Chad Comer, Robbie Starnes and Zach McMillan.

There are 120 paved, reserved parking spaces available for this event. Once those spaces have been reserved, all other teams will be parked by TMS officials upon their arrival at the speedway. Purchase pit parking while supplies last at the event website.

Teams can pay using any major credit or debit card and all transactions are secured through PayPal, an eBay company that has soared to over 162 million active accounts, and processes 11.5 million online transactions per day. You do not have to be a PayPal member to use this free service.

Teams can make multiple purchases on the registration section within the same transaction, which will save time and typing. When you are on the registration page, continue to select ‘add to cart’ items until you are finished and a separate window will contain the items you have selected. You can also edit the invoice before you make your final purchase.

Printable event schedules, rules and more can also be found at the link listed above. If you would prefer to enter by mail, there is an event brochure at the above link that you can print, fill out and mail in your payment. For those not familiar with the TMS layout, there is also a link to a map of the property.
