BRASSTOWN, N.C. – August 14, 2016 – The Southern Nationals Bonus Series and the Ponderosa Speedway in Junction City, Ky. have announced plans for the 26th Annual Fall Classic weekend which will be held on Friday and Saturday November 4 and 5. An agreement was reached last week between new promoter Jamie Stumph to continue the sanction and adjust the event from its originally scheduled format with former owner Jerry Denson.

On Friday Night November 4th the track will host an un-sanctioned $3,000-to-win Super Late Model race while the Southern Nationals Bonus Series will sanction Saturday’s 60-lap 26th Annual Fall Classic paying $10,000-to-win on November 5th. An open practice session will be held on Thursday November 3rd for all divisions. More information on this event will be announced as it draws nearer.
