    The guy behind this series is I believe Michael Robinette. So far the tracks that have a date are Crossville, I-75, Wartburg, North Ga. and Fort Payne. Link to their website below.

      My old hometown track the new Mountain View Raceway in Spring City TN is going to have a race or 2. Don’t know the dates yet since the track is still being built. Once it is complete it is going to be a very new nice track from what I have seen.

        Ah, just check the rules and aluminum heads are OK. Cool. Their CT525 rule is BS, might as well say don't come because they set it up to be irrelevant.

          Highwayman... I think they setup the rules based on the fact that the steelhead guys didn't want the 525 to run with them. So you still can, but yeah... I don't see anyone running it with their rules.

          Old Spring City Raceway is scheduled to be on there as well... just no dates yet as someone above pointed out. They have been working hard on that facility and it will be much improved from when it shut down in 2013.

              I like the weight difference in rules. One spot says 100lbs another says 70lbs. Someday people will learn, fewer rules easiest.l to tech and brings cars. Steel block steel heads open ci no piggy back shocks any brand tire but certain ones like LM 30 1300 ar 56, whatever as long as they basically durometer same

                If it's a "Topless" series why is the cowboy in the logo wearing a hat?

                  Every extra division in specifications only lowers the car counts in all classes.

                        Their website is pretty nice. Looks like it’ll be a nice place. Hopefully they can stick it out and grow.
                        Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.
