JACKSONVILLE, NC – What offseason? Goodyear All American Speedway will be heating things up in North Carolina during the winter months with the thrill of stock car racing – bringing an end to the offseason blues.
Beginning in December, the Winter Heat Series will consist mostly of races for four-cylinder cars, with occasional races for V8 classes as well. After the Christmas holiday, the Winter Heat Series will commence once again on New Year’s Day with the Hangover 150 and continue through mid-February with a race on the eve of the Daytona 500.
Races would be held if the race time temperature during the afternoon is above 50 degrees.
“The winters have become warmer and its not uncommon to have 60 and even 70 degree days during winter months, which is perfect weather for racing,” track promoter Anthony Goodyear said. “A lot of drivers and fans want to keep racing when the weather is nice, so no more racing withdrawals during the offseason here at Goodyear All American Speedway.”
Races are scheduled to take place on December 4, January 1, January 22, January 29, February 12, and February 19 and will be run if weather conditions are favorable. Races could be postponed to other dates if the weather is too chilly and a warmer weekend presents itself.
The December 3 event, which kicks off the Winter Heat Series, will feature a non-winners Late Model Stock Car race. Drivers who have raced in three or more Late Model Stock Car races but have yet to win are invited to compete.
More details about the Winter Heat Series will be released in the weeks ahead.
