    $12,000 to win Scorcher this THURSDAY at Volunteer Speedway -ULTIMATE/UBoB Sanctioned

    This Thursday night - August 18th Volunteer Speedway presents the 12th Annual Scorcher paying $12,000 to win for the 60 lap feature event. The event is co-sanctioned by the ULTIMATE Super Late Model Series and the ULTIMATE Battle of the Bluegrass Series.

    Drivers will vie for the $200 M&W Transport Haulin' It Fast Time Award in group time trials. All drivers will then heat race within their groups. Non-transfers will have another chance to race in via the last chance race(s).

    Volunteer Speedway is located at 14095 West Andrew Johnson Highway in Bulls Gap, Tennessee.

    The grandstand gate will open at 5:30 p.m. and the pit gate opens on Thursday, Aug. 18 at 4 p.m. Drivers’ meeting will be held at 7 p.m. Hot laps are tentatively scheduled to begin at 7:30 p.m. (once sun sets over the track), to be followed by time trials and then green flag racing action.

    Adult grandstand admission is $25, youth (ages 11-15) $15, kids (ages 6-10) $5, with 5-and-under admitted free in the grandstands.

    Pit passes and backside tier-parking $40, regardless of age.

    *** NOTE: There will be no reserved seating for the Scorcher, all seating general admission (but there’s not a bad seat in the house). With a large crowd expected and all available seating space needed for the Ultimate Super Late Model Series 12th annual Scorcher, NO LAWN CHAIRS will be permitted in the grandstands. Only stadium seat-type cushions will be allowed.

    Also, NO COOLERS or outside food allowed to be brought into the front straightaway (main) grandstands!!! Coolers are permitted in the pit area and the backstretch tier-parking, however, no glass containers allowed.

    Camping is available on the track property, however, with no hookups. For those camping, once you enter through the main gates, drive over to your right and set-up in the designated area.

    Directions to Volunteer Speedway: South on Interstate 81 from Tennessee/Virginia state lines, take Exit 23 (Bulls Gap/Greeneville), then turn right onto Hwy. 11-E at bottom of the exit ramp. Look for track entrance approximately 200 yards on left.

    North on Interstate 81 from I-81/I-40 split (East of Knoxville, TN), take Exit 23, then turn left onto Hwy. 11-E at bottom of the exit ramp. Continue underneath the interstate over-pass and track entrance approximately 300 yards ahead on left.

      I see this race getting better now with maybe some big names showing up due to Topless rain out, 12,000 is a good pay-out for anyone!!

        Jimmy Owens has already committed via facebook, and rumor is that Bloomquist will be there as well. I'll bet you can add a bunch more names to the list. The Butterball at Richmond should benefit as well.

                  Been out of the pits for a while. How do the racers fair against the Hoosier tires? I remember a time 8-9 years ago when the racers were so much faster after they got a few laps on them.

                      With the news that Batesville has pulled the plug on The Topless, I bet that The Gap's pit area will be overflowing, on Thursday night.
