King of the Hill Format
King of the
Hill Format: Top 4 cars in each non wing heat race will automatically transfer
to the A-main. First and second place
finishers in each heat race will be entered into the King of the Hill tournament. The tournament consists of a head-to-head two
lap showdown. The winner of each two lap
shootout will advance to the next round of the bracket. The last driver standing in the bracket will
start on the pole for the 25 lap A-main.
Drivers in the King of the Hill tournament will make up the first four
rows of the A-main. The further a driver
advances in the bracket, the closer to the front they will start in the
A-main. In addition to starting spots,
$900 in manufacturer product certificates are up for grabs by any driver in the
bracket. Fans are encouraged to play
along Saturday and make their projections to share on social media using the hash
tag #WRPKOTH.
A printable bracket will
be released Thursday at 7AM.
Big thank you to
everyone who donated to support Tim Calicoat Saturday night. Jamie Sizemore reports that $1729.00 was
presented to the Calicoat family. A
banner covered in signatures from drivers, fans, and WRP staff was also
presented. Tim and his wife Leslie were
speechless and would like to thank everyone for their generosity.
UPDATED: JULY 6, 2014
For Immediate Release:
Attention Buckeye Machine Non Wing sprint car participants, we have decided to make a change regarding our tire rules for the 2014 season. Starting June 1st, 2014 all sprint cars will be required to run a Hoosier Medium 105/16 right rear tire only. The other three corners of the car will remain Hoosier (any compound). Until June 1st you can continue to run any compound Hoosier on all four corners. We feel that not only will this save the racer $40 per RR tire it will also put everyone on the same tire.
As always, we thank you for your support and look forward to another great season of racing in this class.
Thanks,
Danny Kelly
Race Director

New in 2014! We have listened to your suggestions and in 2014 we will be honoring Rookie of the Year in all divisions. In order to qualify for Rookie of the Year honors you must not have raced in the division at our facility or any other facility in the past. We are wanting to honor new drivers to the divisions as we have seen a huge increase in drivers moving up or starting out in our divisions. In order to be eligible there will be a form on the “Rules” tab of our website that you need to print off and fill out. You will need to hand this in the first night you race with your drivers profile sheet. We hope to see many new faces competing in all 5 regular divisions.
Thanks,
Danny Kelly
