Billings Motorsports Park Preparing for Swindell, Lasoski and Contingent of Top Racers During NSA Shootout

Inside Line Promotions – BILLINGS, Mont. (Aug. 10, 2016) – Two of the biggest names in sprint car racing are coming to Billings Motorsports Park next month.

Sammy Swindell and Danny Lasoski will both venture to the 3/8-mile oval for the final weekend of the NSA Shootout, which is a marquee 360ci winged sprint car event on Sept. 9-10. The opener pays $2,000 to win with the finale offering $7,500 to win.

Those two drivers finished first and second during the 26th annual Arnold Motor Supply 360 Knoxville Nationals at Knoxville Raceway in Knoxville, Iowa, last weekend when nearly 100 drivers battled for the top prize.

Swindell was victorious and with the victory he joined Lasoski as the only drivers to win both the 410 and 360 versions of the Knoxville Nationals.

Next month the duo will head to Billings Motorsports Park, where both drivers said it has been approximately a decade since they’ve raced there, to take on a variety of top regional and national contenders.

Online tickets are on sale for the two-day spectacle at http://www.BMPSpeedway.com. Adult tickets are $20 for Friday ($17 pre-buy) and $25 for Saturday ($21 pre-buy) and $10 each night ($7 per night pre-buy) for children ages 7 to 11. Children ages 6 and younger get in free. There’s also a pre-buy bundle for the weekend providing adult tickets for both nights for only $37 and children ages 7 to 11 for only $11 total.

Aaron Reutzel captured the $7,500 top prize for winning the opening doubleheader of the NSA Shootout at Billings Motorsports Park on July 16 following a rain out on Night 1.

Next up, the NSA Shootout features a trip to Canada on Aug. 26-27 for the 61st annual Gold Cup at Castrol Raceway in Edmonton, Alberta.
