With a production that will include six state-of-the-art cameras,
viewers will catch all the action during the North–South Shootout. And
there promises to be plenty of racing excitement as the traditional
event features 125 laps of green flag racing for both the Tour-Type
Modifieds and Super Late Models of the Champion Racing Association
(CRA) Super Series. Support divisions include the SK-Type Modifieds,
USA Modifieds, Vintage Modifieds and Vintage Sportsman.
The northern and southern Modified stars will engage in an all-out
duel for racing supremacy with some of the biggest names in Modified
racing including the likes of two-time and defending champion Burt
Myers, Ted Christopher, Jason Myers, another two-time Shootout
champion Matt Hirschman, and countless others.
The SK-Type Modifieds, an equally as competitive and tenacious
brand of open-wheel racers, will compete in a 50-lapper of their own.
New to the Shootout in 2010 will be the USA Modifieds. Joining the
open-wheel brethren are the authentic and very racy Vintage Modified
and Sportsman divisions.
The CRA-sanctioned 125 lap Super Late Model event will showcase
drivers from various Super Late Model Series including CRA, PASS, the
Blizzard Series along with a group of competitors from a number of
other series and tracks. The entry list which currently stands at 27
includes the likes of young stars Ross Kenseth and Ryan Blaney,
Preston Peltier, Kyle Busch Motorsports driver T.J. Reaid along with
defending race winner Jeff Fultz.
On Friday, November 5, qualifying will be held for all divisions.
Time trials will be run for the Tour-Type Modifieds, Super Late
Models, SK-Type Modifieds and the USA Modifieds followed by heat races
for all divisions. The 125-lap events for Tour-Type Modifieds and the
Super Late Models will highlight the activities on Saturday, November
6. The 50-lap feature for the SK-Type Modifieds and USA Modifieds
along with the Vintage divisions will also compete in feature action
on Saturday.
