Sniper Speed IMCA Lone Star Stock Car Tour boasts six dates and potential $10,000 payday
WACO, Texas – Tour officials are pleased to announce upcoming dates for the 2022 Sniper Speed Lone Star Stock Car Tour, which include a new track and new live stream provider.
IMCA Sunoco Stock Cars will compete nightly for $1,000 top prize money and $100 to start during the six-night tour.
Each night, pre-registered drivers will also be eligible for contingency awards and a chance at the $5,000 top points championship prize money for the tour.
In addition, the driver winning both Stock Car main events Feb. 21 at Devil’s Bowl Speedway and Feb. 26 at Kennedale Speedway Park earns $10,000. If no driver wins both nights, the driver with the top point total from those two events earns $1,000.
“We have partnered up with many of the same great tracks again this year,” said Tour Director Jon Courchaine, touting the opportunity for drivers to race for big paydays as well as IMCA Speedway Motors Weekly Racing National, EQ Cylinder Heads Southern Region and KMJ Performance Texas State points each night. “We added Devil’s Bowl Speedway this year on Monday and feel with the track’s location, it will make the travel between races better on the teams.”
The tour will compete at five tracks in six days with IMCA Modifieds and Smiley’s Racing Products Southern SportMods racing for $750 to win and a minimum of $75 to start each night starting Sunday, Feb. 20 at Heart O’ Texas Speedway in Waco.
