Kilgore TX (7/25/15) by DarinShort.com. LoneStar Speedway (LSS) in Kilgore Texas is pleased to announce the return of one of the biggest paying Modified and Stock Car events of the season with the 3rd Annual $10,000 to win Armadillo Nationals, September 17th-19th, 2015. A special event site is now open for racers and fans. By clicking www.darinshort.com/arm.html you can view the event flyer, preregister your car, purchase 3-day pit passes, review the rules, area hotels, check out the LoneStar Campground and much more. Race teams are required to read the rules section prior to race weekend so they are familiar with the unique qualifying format. The previous two versions of the Armadillo Nationals featured incredible racing on all three nights, with 160+ race teams from a dozen states participating in the fast-paced, three-division program. All three LSS points divisions will again be in action over the three day extravaganza, which utilizes a very exciting and fan-friendly format. The drivers really enjoy our unique qualifying format, and it will be exactly the same as the past two Armadillo's. (Details are posted on the 'event rules' page of the event website.) All cars must be LSS legal, and track points will be awarded. All drivers will receive 50 track points for participating in the Armadillo Nationals. There is no car registration fee due if your team is not a LSS point’s driver. Modifieds will be racing for $10,000 to win and $500 to start (24th). The Limited Modified feature winner will take home $3,000, and the first Factory Stock to take the checkers will receive $2,000. A super-sized competitor purse is being offered – yet without excessive entry fee or pit pass costs for the drivers; plus a great 3-day grandstand pass offer for the race fans.

That’s right, you can get in to see all three nights of the $10,000 to win Armadillo Nationals for less than going to three regularly priced LSS events! There are no advance ticket sales to this event, and you can purchase your three-day armband when you arrive to the speedway on opening night of the event, Thursday September 17th. Complete division rules are posted at the track website. An event flyer has been posted under the ‘resources’ section of the track website as well. Here is the basic event structure for all three divisions for the LoneStar Armadillo Nationals: -This is not a ‘split field’ qualifying format. Meaning, all cars race all three days. Your highest point total on Thursday OR Friday will be used to determine your Saturday night lineup. Except, the top 4 finishers in the Thu/Fri A-features will automatically lock in the front four rows of the Saturday night feature. -The next six positions in the Saturday finale will be locked in by the top six drivers in points (from Thursday or Friday points). The balance of the cars in each division will go directly into two B-features (and possibly C-feature). A total of 10 cars total will advance from the B-features to the A-feature. Nightly heat races will be draw for position with finishing position and passing points being awarded. There is no penalty whatsoever for racing both Thursday and Friday night. We encourage drivers to race all three nights. -Any driver that races Thursday night can come back to improve their starting positions for Saturday night without any penalty whatsoever. This includes locked-in drivers. For example, if you finish 4th in the Thursday night qualifying feature, you can come back on Friday night. Let's say you finish 2nd on Friday night in the feature, that would move you from 4th row inside to 2nd row outside in the feature on Saturday. Conversely, if you finish 4th in the Thursday night feature, then come back to requalify on Friday and finish 10th that night, you will still be locked-in from Thursday night and will start 4th row inside on Saturday night. -Electronic timing and scoring will be used for all divisions. A one-time $25 transponder rental fee is due at sign in. This will ensure all teams being scored to the best that is possible, along with having live lineups and results quickly available for all of the teams and fans to keep tabs on their smart phones during the event. Professional Motor Sports Solutions of Charlotte, NC is providing timing and scoring throughout the weekend, as they have the past several years at LSS. Here are some quick facts for the Sept. 17th-19th LoneStar Armadillo Nationals: - Pits open at 4pm (most likely earlier on Thursday), Grandstands open at 5pm, Draw cut-off at 6:30pm sharp, Mandatory Drivers Meeting 6:50pm, Hot laps at 7:00pm, and racing to immediately follow. (Note that the sun sets shortly after 7pm this time of the year, so it will make for great racing conditions.) -Adult general grandstand admission just $12 each on Thursday and Friday, with Saturday’s championship night being $20. -Adult 3-day Grandstand General Admission Pass is available at the track on race night for just $35 (a $9 savings!). -Youth ages 6-11 are $5 per night, while ages 5 and under are free with adult admission. -Senior/Active military are $10 each general admission on Thursday/Friday; and $18 for Saturday (or $35 for 3-day). -Upgrade any ticket to the Reserved Section for $5 per person per night. -All Pit Passes for all ages are $30 each on Thursday and Friday, with $35 on Saturday. 3-day advance pit passes are for sale at the event website through 9/23 for $90. -No outside food/drink coolers are allowed inside grandstand, a full selection of economically priced food concessions, including beer, are available -Click www.LoneStarSpeedway.com to view/print rules for each of the classes of cars racing. -Click www.darinshort.com/arm.html to visit the event website, view flyer, register your team, purchase 3-day pit passes, read the rules/format, area hotels and track directions/info.
