TULSA, Okla. – The ASCS Elite North Non-Wing Series and new ASCS Elite Great Plains Non-Wing Series calendars were both revealed Thursday afternoon.
Beginning its second season under the ASCS banner, the Elite North Non-Wing Series will encompass 12 dates across Colorado.
The tour will work with the newly-formed ASCS Elite Great Plains Non-Wing Series which will contest eight events in Nebraska, South Dakota, and Wyoming.
“It’s a good thing they’ve set up for the area. With the tracks being so far apart, it’s nothing for races to be six to ten hours away from each other when you start talking about crossing state lines,” said ASCS Scheduling Coordinator Terry Mattox. “This way, it gives the drivers further north something to run for and gives the option to travel if they want to.”
Both tours will have separate point funds, with a two-day weekend at Phillips County and I-76 Speedway in Colorado bringing the two series together on June 18-19.
Looking at the ASCS Elite North Non-Wing lineup, the season runs from April through September, with dates at four Colorado ovals.
Calhan’s El Paso County Raceway will host the bulk of the shows with seven. I-76 Speedway in Fort Morgan is set for a trio of nights, with Phillips County Raceway in Holyoke and Pueblo Speedway in Pueblo each with a single night.
Moving over to the ASCS Elite Great Plains calendar, Black Hills Speedway in Rapid City, S.D., will open the slate on June 11, with partner track Gillette (Wyo.) Thunder Speedway following on June 12.
The tour will conclude the three-day weekend Casper Speedway the following night.
Following the tour’s combined showing with the ASCS Elite North field, Independence Day Weekend at Sweetwater Speedway in Rock Springs, Wyo., on July 3-4 gives way to the tour’s final show at Lincoln County Raceway in North Platte, Neb., on July 17.
Both tours are under the supervision of Jeremy Lovelady.
