upon the same location at the same time.
Experts are baffled as exactly what intensity level will result from this convergence, but all agree, it’s going to be a
history making moment – and one that you won’t want to miss.
This anomaly will occur October 9th and 10th directly upon Cowtown Speedway during the running of the Cowtown
Sprint Nationals.
Race fans that would like to take witness of this event are urged to click www.CowtownSpeedway.com and select your
option of reserved or general admission 2-day passes.
One Hurricane is currently located over Gun Barrel City Texas and the other is in Pittsboro Indiana.
In the meantime, two special websites have been set up to monitor the current path and activity of each Hurricane and
can be viewed at: www.rh67.com and www.randyhannagan.com
50 other teams are already assembled to combat these two combined forces. More teams are planned to join the fray
and will be announced upon their confirmation.
Cowtown Sprint Nationals Entries Surpass ‘50’ Mark
Kennedale TX (9/23/09) by DarinShort.com. With the event date of October 9-10 still over two weeks out, the sprint car
early entry list is now in excess of 50 for the Cowtown Sprint Nationals (CSN) presented by ShopTheBoss.com and Lone
Star Speedway. The $85,000 event is set for October 9-10 at Cowtown Speedway and features the stars and cars of the
ASCS Lone Star, Gulf South and Sooner regions. Plus, several Lucas Oil National ASCS Sprint Series drivers have
entered, as their schedule is ‘off’ that weekend.
Driver entries from 10 states have been received; spanning from Springfield Illinois to Springfield Nebraska to
Albuquerque New Mexico to Thibodaux Louisiana – and many points in between.
It’s very important that drivers pre-register for this event, as it reserves them a pit space and helps the race track put
together the jigsaw puzzle of large tow rigs in the pit area; and helps the announcers to keep fans better informed.
Premium spots in the pits are going fast, and phone in reservations are not accepted. Only drivers that are pre-
registered will be assigned pit space. Those spaces will be staked with the driver’s name on them on practice night,
October 8thor when they arrive on October 9th.
Drivers not pre-registering will be parked wherever the track deems best on race night, so it can best assemble the
‘jigsaw’ puzzle of assorted tow rig and trailer sizes.
Also teams competing in the Topless 100 for Modifieds, Topless Limited Modifieds and Winged 600 Championships
should also continue to get preregistered. The early entry deadline for those divisions saves $25 and that promotion
expires on October 4th.
To pre-enter, please go to www.CowtownSpeedway.com then click on the “Nationals” link on the home page. Scroll
down the Nationals page and there you will see the quick, 2-step registration process. The cutoff for preregistration is
October 4. At that point, the pit parking chart will go from ‘penciled’ in to ‘inked.’
The track is expecting a field of 60-80 sprint teams, and nearly 200 cars total by race time, which will make for a very full
pit area.

Six-Time Knoxville Raceway Champion Enters Cowtown Sprint Nationals
Kennedale TX (9/10/09) by DarinShort.com. When you talk about sprint car drivers nationally, this particular driver has
career statistics that rival some of the best:
-Six-time Knoxville Raceway track champion, with 47 feature wins.
-Six-time Huset’s Speedway track champion, with 84 feature wins.
-244 career sprint car victories in 17 states; including 17 wins in 2009 alone.
And now, in his first ever appearance at Cowtown Speedway in Kennedale Texas, Altoona Iowa’s Terry McCarl has
officially entered the Big Game Treestands #24 in this year’s Cowtown Sprint Nationals (CSN). The race is to be held
October 9-10 at the high-banked ¼ mile speed plant in the Ft. Worth suburb of Kennedale Texas.
Terry commented: “I’ve heard a lot about Cowtown Speedway, and I like the way they’re promoting the track; so I want
to show my support by taking part in this growing event.”
He adds: “I’ve watched some video footage from the racing at Cowtown, and it looks like there’s a lot of passing, which
is really important, as the ASCS Series is loaded with talented drivers that will all be racing at the Cowtown Sprint
Nationals.”
He also plans on interacting with race fans throughout the weekend, including taking part in the Cowtown Fan Fest
scheduled before the Saturday finale. Terry will release more CSN plans at his website www.TerryMcCarl.com in the
days leading up to the event, so make sure to visit his site often for the latest news.
Cowtown Sprint Nationals Quick Facts:
- Since Cowtown Speedway has been completely reconfigured for 2009, no winner has won from the front two rows of
the 3 ASCS feature races held in 2009…and one winner came from an 8th row starting spot.
- At the last ASCS event, two out of state drivers made their first-ever Cowtown visit and ran 4th and 12th in the feature
race, showing how quickly new drivers can adapt to the wide racing surface.
- All CSN drivers are urged to pre-register (online) for this event, as it reserves a pit space for their team and helps the
track stay better organized. Pit space is limited, so if you have specific parking needs (like a large trailer), you should
enter your car as soon as possible; as we will have close to 200 cars total at this event.
- Fans, you won’t want to miss out on this big event. Right now you can purchase advance tickets on the track website
and save $10 off of race night pricing. Just $35 will get you two full nights of championship racing action, plus access to
the Fan Fest on Saturday. Kids and Youth tickets are just $2 and $5 per race night.
- Nearly $10,000 has been added to the 2009 CSN race purse – without additional price increases to fans or race teams.
- Complete event information, including flyer, Fan Fest, pre-registration, pre-entry list, online tickets and much more
can be found by clicking www.CowtownSpeedway.com then clicking on the ‘Nationals’ link.
The real question is becoming, who will walk off with the Cowtown Sprint Nationals title in 2009?
Will it be an ‘invading’ driver such as Terry McCarl or Sam Hafertepe Jr.? Or first-ever visitor in 2008, Brian Brown, who
left with the CSN title? Could it be one of the strong contingent of Cowtown regulars such as 2-time ’09 ASCS winner
Kevin Ramey? The Lucas Oil Series is scheduled off that weekend and several of those teams are already entered,
including 2008 Driver of the Year and defending Series champion Jason Johnson, or 2008 Short Track Nationals
champion Tony Bruce Jr.?
One thing is for sure, if you are looking for great entertainment at family-affordable prices, you will not want to miss the
Cowtown Sprint Nationals on October 9-10 at The Fastest Li’l Dirt Track In Texas, Cowtown Speedway!

Early Entries and Manufacturer Awards Rolling In For Cowtown Sprint Nationals
Kennedale, TX (9/9/09) by DarinShort.com. Kicking off exactly one month from today’s date, October 9-10, will mark the
largest total track purse in Cowtown Speedway history with the running of the 2nd Annual Cowtown Sprint Nationals
(CSN) presented by ShopTheBoss.com and Lone Star Speedway.
A staggering 2-day purse in excess of $85,000 will be on the line. The sprint winner on Friday night’s 30-lapper will take
home $2,000 and $8,000 will await the winner of the 35-lap ASCS sprint finale on Saturday October 10th. Joining the
sprint cars will be the 9th annual Topless 100, the Topless Limited Modifieds and the Winged 600’s Championships.
Early driver entries are rolling in to the speedway, plus a multitude of product awards from leading industry
manufacturers are backing their support of the event.
The CSN is building into a true national event, as there are already several regions represented in the early entries.
Drivers planning on attending this event are urged to pre-enter their cars, as; the track will reserve a spot in the pit
area for their hauler. Plus it allows fans to keep informed of the drivers coming. Drivers not pre-entering will not
receive a reserved pit space and they most likely will not get to park where they would like. Visit the track website to
get registered today, as we expect a very full pit area; as was the case in the 2008 event.
As of 9/9/09, here are the current sprint car driver entries, as well as the region they represent:

Cowtown Speedway for this event. We will update the entry list periodically between now and race weekend.
And several of the industry’s top manufacturers are showing their support of the CSN by offering great awards to sprint
teams. Sprint teams; make sure to support the businesses that support your racing at the CSN. Here is a current listing
of CSN event awards:

If you are a manufacturer and would like to join the excitement of the CSN and looking for effective solutions for
marketing your product, please email TheBOSS@ShopTheBoss.com for more information.
The increased size of this year’s event wouldn’t be possible without the addition of two new sponsors:
The Bargain Outlet Super Store, AKA “The BOSS,” is a brand new cash and carry home improvement store in the DFW
area and offers 50% off flooring and more. The BOSS is conveniently located on Valley View Lane in Irving near DFW
Airport. Race fans can visit their display under the grandstands to check out their top quality products for the home,
plus Cowtown fans will receive an exclusive discount offer.
And the newly reopened Lone Star Speedway is ramping up for their giant World of Outlaws sprint car event to be held
on October 24th. Fans are encouraged to purchase their advance WoO tickets at Cowtown Speedway in the Lone Star
Speedway display at the track. Lone Star will also be hosting several fun promotions for fans throughout the race
weekend.
Here is a breakdown of the weekend’s events that include four premier racing divisions:
Cowtown Sprint Nationals. This is the 2nd annual event, and it’s a sanctioned point’s race for ASCS Gulf South, Sooner
and Lone Star regions. Drivers from throughout the region, plus many National invaders will all be slugging it out in a
30-lap, 22-car, $2,000 to win feature race on Friday October 9th and a giant $8,000 to win, 35-lap, 24-car championship
feature on October 10th. Last year’s winner was the 2007 Knoxville 410 Sprint Car point champion, Brian Brown; with
2008 ASCS National Champion Jason Johnson finishing in second. 49 sprint drivers competed in the inaugural event,
with even a larger field predicted for this year. A practice night is scheduled for all race divisions on Thursday October
8th. Drivers who have not been to Cowtown in 2009 are highly encouraged to attend, as the track has been widened
nearly 15 feet since 2008.
Drivers. There is no entry fee for sprint cars at the Cowtown Sprint Nationals. In turn, sprint teams need to pre-enter at
the track website in order to have a pit space reserved for them in the pit area. That allows the track to keep organized
and race fans informed of whom they will see racing throughout the weekend. Pre-entries must be received by October
3rd. No phone-in registrations or pit reservations are allowed. The pit parking chart will be completed on October 4th.
Visit www.CowtownSpeedway.com to preregister.
Fans. You can expect to see all of the sprint car stars from the South, including the top 10 in points for each of the
ASCS Sooner, Lone Star and Gulf regions. Plus, many ASCS National Series stars can be expected, as there is no
National series event scheduled for the weekend. Many ‘invaders’ from across the U.S. will also take on the ¼ mile high
banks; as was the case with last year’s winner, Brian Brown. The pre-entry list will be published as drivers sign up at
the track website.
Topless 100. As in the 2008 Cowtown Sprint Nationals weekend, the wildly popular 9th annual Topless 100 for Modifieds
will join the sprint car action. Their feature will take place following the sprint car feature event. Advance online pre-
entry is highly recommended by October 3rd, as it reserves you a pit space and will save drivers $25. No phone-in
registrations or pit reservations are allowed. Practice will be held on October 8th with qualifying action on October 9th.
Early entries include Sam Hafertepe Jr., Scooter Bates, Glenn Leuschner, Tom Lorenz and Danny Caldwell.
Topless Limited Modifieds and the Winged 600’s Championships will round out the racing action with each winner
taking home a $1,500 payday. Advance online pre-entry is highly recommended by October 3rd, as it reserves you a pit
space and will save drivers $25. No phone-in registrations or pit reservations are allowed. Practice October 8th and
qualifying the 9th.
Two-day grandstand passes. Increased ’09 purse, but no increased ticket or pit prices! Fans can save $10 by
purchasing their tickets online at the track website through October 8; as 2-day adult grandstand pass will cost just $35.
Tickets will be available at the gate on race night for $20 on Friday and $25 on Saturday. Youth and child tickets will
remain at just $5 and $2 on each night. Visit www.CowtownSpeedway.com for complete details, including the event
flyer. Pit passes are $35 each night and are available on race night by cash only; as the track payback is in cash. No
checks allowed.
2nd Annual Cowtown Fan Fest. On October 10th, race fans of all ages holding event tickets for that night’s Nationals
finale will be allowed into the pit area from 3pm until 4:15pm. Fans will be able to check out the cars and stars in all four
of the race divisions, take pictures, visit with the teams, purchase team apparel & merchandise; plus get a behind the
scenes look before the action takes place on the track. Plus, many prizes will be given away to race program holders
attending the Fan Fest. Last year’s Fan Fest grand prize received a sublimated pit crew shirt from Kevin Ramey.
Travel Tips. For flight options, www.Travelocity.com is a great source of information, especially by clicking their ‘Last
Minute Deals’ section that includes hotels and even car rentals; many at heavily discounted prices. Also note that DFW
serves as a major airport hub for the entire U.S., and with a bit of planning, you can fly in and out during the week
affordably; so you can return for the following weekend’s racing action.
Weather. October is typically dry and highs in the 80’s. We will monitor the weather as the event date gets closer.
It’s Almost Here. We look forward to see many new teams and faces at the Cowtown Sprint Nationals, and please visit
CowtownSpeedway.com for the latest event news, as the Nationals page will be updated regularly.

town the for next weekend’s Lucas Oil ASCS National series action. For event information, please visit www.DevilsBowl.
com
Event #3. World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series at Lone Star Speedway in Kilgore, TX. The ultra-fast ½ mile clay high-banks
plays host to the cars and stars of the World of Outlaws sprint series on the following Saturday, October 24th. Race fans
can expect to see similar jaw-dropping action when the series made its triumphant return to the speed plant this past
April. This is the last WoO event heading into the World Finale’s at Lowe’s Motor Speedway. Visit www.
LonestarSpeedway.com for all event details. Lone Star is less than a 1.5 hour drive straight east of DFW on I-20.
Event #4. 22nd annual Hoosier Racing Tire Short Track Nationals presented by O’Reilly Auto Parts, I-30 Speedway, Little
Rock, AR; October 29th-31st. About 4 ½ hours up the freeway on Interstate 30 from DFW, the next stop is the wild and
drama filled Short Track Nationals (STN). The championship event pays $15,000 to win and $2,200 to start. Each year,
sprint teams and fans from across the country converge upon Little Rock for three nights of great sprint car racing. The
following weekend is the unscheduled vertical water date for the STN, the WoO World Finale’s at Lowe’s and NASCAR
weekend at Texas Motor Speedway.
Event #5. 3rd Annual City Vending November Sprint Shootout (NSS) and Eagle Chassis ASCS2 Series Finale, November
13-14, Cowtown Speedway, Kennedale, TX. The 2nd annual NSS in 2008 left fans screaming “we want more!” Over 200
race teams slugged it out over the weekend, with Arkansas’s Tim Crawley holding off a hard-charging Tony Bruce Jr.
and Jason Johnson for the sprint bragging rights. This year’s event pays sprint teams a bulked-up $7,000 to win and
$500 for 24th. Friday night will guarantee every sprint driver in the pits a starting spot in a $1,000 to win 25-lap
qualifying feature. Last year, due to high car count, three $1,000 to-win sprint features were held. The same event
format is on tap for the 2009 NSS edition. Each division of the ASCS2 will pay $2,000 to their respective winners.
Experts are baffled as exactly what intensity level will result from this convergence, but all agree, it’s going to be a
history making moment – and one that you won’t want to miss.
This anomaly will occur October 9th and 10th directly upon Cowtown Speedway during the running of the Cowtown
Sprint Nationals.
Race fans that would like to take witness of this event are urged to click www.CowtownSpeedway.com and select your
option of reserved or general admission 2-day passes.
One Hurricane is currently located over Gun Barrel City Texas and the other is in Pittsboro Indiana.
In the meantime, two special websites have been set up to monitor the current path and activity of each Hurricane and
can be viewed at: www.rh67.com and www.randyhannagan.com
50 other teams are already assembled to combat these two combined forces. More teams are planned to join the fray
and will be announced upon their confirmation.
Cowtown Sprint Nationals Entries Surpass ‘50’ Mark
Kennedale TX (9/23/09) by DarinShort.com. With the event date of October 9-10 still over two weeks out, the sprint car
early entry list is now in excess of 50 for the Cowtown Sprint Nationals (CSN) presented by ShopTheBoss.com and Lone
Star Speedway. The $85,000 event is set for October 9-10 at Cowtown Speedway and features the stars and cars of the
ASCS Lone Star, Gulf South and Sooner regions. Plus, several Lucas Oil National ASCS Sprint Series drivers have
entered, as their schedule is ‘off’ that weekend.
Driver entries from 10 states have been received; spanning from Springfield Illinois to Springfield Nebraska to
Albuquerque New Mexico to Thibodaux Louisiana – and many points in between.
It’s very important that drivers pre-register for this event, as it reserves them a pit space and helps the race track put
together the jigsaw puzzle of large tow rigs in the pit area; and helps the announcers to keep fans better informed.
Premium spots in the pits are going fast, and phone in reservations are not accepted. Only drivers that are pre-
registered will be assigned pit space. Those spaces will be staked with the driver’s name on them on practice night,
October 8thor when they arrive on October 9th.
Drivers not pre-registering will be parked wherever the track deems best on race night, so it can best assemble the
‘jigsaw’ puzzle of assorted tow rig and trailer sizes.
Also teams competing in the Topless 100 for Modifieds, Topless Limited Modifieds and Winged 600 Championships
should also continue to get preregistered. The early entry deadline for those divisions saves $25 and that promotion
expires on October 4th.
To pre-enter, please go to www.CowtownSpeedway.com then click on the “Nationals” link on the home page. Scroll
down the Nationals page and there you will see the quick, 2-step registration process. The cutoff for preregistration is
October 4. At that point, the pit parking chart will go from ‘penciled’ in to ‘inked.’
The track is expecting a field of 60-80 sprint teams, and nearly 200 cars total by race time, which will make for a very full
pit area.

Six-Time Knoxville Raceway Champion Enters Cowtown Sprint Nationals
Kennedale TX (9/10/09) by DarinShort.com. When you talk about sprint car drivers nationally, this particular driver has
career statistics that rival some of the best:
-Six-time Knoxville Raceway track champion, with 47 feature wins.
-Six-time Huset’s Speedway track champion, with 84 feature wins.
-244 career sprint car victories in 17 states; including 17 wins in 2009 alone.
And now, in his first ever appearance at Cowtown Speedway in Kennedale Texas, Altoona Iowa’s Terry McCarl has
officially entered the Big Game Treestands #24 in this year’s Cowtown Sprint Nationals (CSN). The race is to be held
October 9-10 at the high-banked ¼ mile speed plant in the Ft. Worth suburb of Kennedale Texas.
Terry commented: “I’ve heard a lot about Cowtown Speedway, and I like the way they’re promoting the track; so I want
to show my support by taking part in this growing event.”
He adds: “I’ve watched some video footage from the racing at Cowtown, and it looks like there’s a lot of passing, which
is really important, as the ASCS Series is loaded with talented drivers that will all be racing at the Cowtown Sprint
Nationals.”
He also plans on interacting with race fans throughout the weekend, including taking part in the Cowtown Fan Fest
scheduled before the Saturday finale. Terry will release more CSN plans at his website www.TerryMcCarl.com in the
days leading up to the event, so make sure to visit his site often for the latest news.
Cowtown Sprint Nationals Quick Facts:
- Since Cowtown Speedway has been completely reconfigured for 2009, no winner has won from the front two rows of
the 3 ASCS feature races held in 2009…and one winner came from an 8th row starting spot.
- At the last ASCS event, two out of state drivers made their first-ever Cowtown visit and ran 4th and 12th in the feature
race, showing how quickly new drivers can adapt to the wide racing surface.
- All CSN drivers are urged to pre-register (online) for this event, as it reserves a pit space for their team and helps the
track stay better organized. Pit space is limited, so if you have specific parking needs (like a large trailer), you should
enter your car as soon as possible; as we will have close to 200 cars total at this event.
- Fans, you won’t want to miss out on this big event. Right now you can purchase advance tickets on the track website
and save $10 off of race night pricing. Just $35 will get you two full nights of championship racing action, plus access to
the Fan Fest on Saturday. Kids and Youth tickets are just $2 and $5 per race night.
- Nearly $10,000 has been added to the 2009 CSN race purse – without additional price increases to fans or race teams.
- Complete event information, including flyer, Fan Fest, pre-registration, pre-entry list, online tickets and much more
can be found by clicking www.CowtownSpeedway.com then clicking on the ‘Nationals’ link.
The real question is becoming, who will walk off with the Cowtown Sprint Nationals title in 2009?
Will it be an ‘invading’ driver such as Terry McCarl or Sam Hafertepe Jr.? Or first-ever visitor in 2008, Brian Brown, who
left with the CSN title? Could it be one of the strong contingent of Cowtown regulars such as 2-time ’09 ASCS winner
Kevin Ramey? The Lucas Oil Series is scheduled off that weekend and several of those teams are already entered,
including 2008 Driver of the Year and defending Series champion Jason Johnson, or 2008 Short Track Nationals
champion Tony Bruce Jr.?
One thing is for sure, if you are looking for great entertainment at family-affordable prices, you will not want to miss the
Cowtown Sprint Nationals on October 9-10 at The Fastest Li’l Dirt Track In Texas, Cowtown Speedway!

Early Entries and Manufacturer Awards Rolling In For Cowtown Sprint Nationals
Kennedale, TX (9/9/09) by DarinShort.com. Kicking off exactly one month from today’s date, October 9-10, will mark the
largest total track purse in Cowtown Speedway history with the running of the 2nd Annual Cowtown Sprint Nationals
(CSN) presented by ShopTheBoss.com and Lone Star Speedway.
A staggering 2-day purse in excess of $85,000 will be on the line. The sprint winner on Friday night’s 30-lapper will take
home $2,000 and $8,000 will await the winner of the 35-lap ASCS sprint finale on Saturday October 10th. Joining the
sprint cars will be the 9th annual Topless 100, the Topless Limited Modifieds and the Winged 600’s Championships.
Early driver entries are rolling in to the speedway, plus a multitude of product awards from leading industry
manufacturers are backing their support of the event.
The CSN is building into a true national event, as there are already several regions represented in the early entries.
Drivers planning on attending this event are urged to pre-enter their cars, as; the track will reserve a spot in the pit
area for their hauler. Plus it allows fans to keep informed of the drivers coming. Drivers not pre-entering will not
receive a reserved pit space and they most likely will not get to park where they would like. Visit the track website to
get registered today, as we expect a very full pit area; as was the case in the 2008 event.
As of 9/9/09, here are the current sprint car driver entries, as well as the region they represent:

teams. Sprint teams; make sure to support the businesses that support your racing at the CSN. Here is a current listing

If you are a manufacturer and would like to join the excitement of the CSN and looking for effective solutions for
marketing your product, please email TheBOSS@ShopTheBoss.com for more information.
The increased size of this year’s event wouldn’t be possible without the addition of two new sponsors:
The Bargain Outlet Super Store, AKA “The BOSS,” is a brand new cash and carry home improvement store in the DFW
area and offers 50% off flooring and more. The BOSS is conveniently located on Valley View Lane in Irving near DFW
Airport. Race fans can visit their display under the grandstands to check out their top quality products for the home,
plus Cowtown fans will receive an exclusive discount offer.
And the newly reopened Lone Star Speedway is ramping up for their giant World of Outlaws sprint car event to be held
on October 24th. Fans are encouraged to purchase their advance WoO tickets at Cowtown Speedway in the Lone Star
Speedway display at the track. Lone Star will also be hosting several fun promotions for fans throughout the race
weekend.
Here is a breakdown of the weekend’s events that include four premier racing divisions:
Cowtown Sprint Nationals. This is the 2nd annual event, and it’s a sanctioned point’s race for ASCS Gulf South, Sooner
and Lone Star regions. Drivers from throughout the region, plus many National invaders will all be slugging it out in a
30-lap, 22-car, $2,000 to win feature race on Friday October 9th and a giant $8,000 to win, 35-lap, 24-car championship
feature on October 10th. Last year’s winner was the 2007 Knoxville 410 Sprint Car point champion, Brian Brown; with
2008 ASCS National Champion Jason Johnson finishing in second. 49 sprint drivers competed in the inaugural event,
with even a larger field predicted for this year. A practice night is scheduled for all race divisions on Thursday October
8th. Drivers who have not been to Cowtown in 2009 are highly encouraged to attend, as the track has been widened
nearly 15 feet since 2008.
Drivers. There is no entry fee for sprint cars at the Cowtown Sprint Nationals. In turn, sprint teams need to pre-enter at
the track website in order to have a pit space reserved for them in the pit area. That allows the track to keep organized
and race fans informed of whom they will see racing throughout the weekend. Pre-entries must be received by October
3rd. No phone-in registrations or pit reservations are allowed. The pit parking chart will be completed on October 4th.
Visit www.CowtownSpeedway.com to preregister.
Fans. You can expect to see all of the sprint car stars from the South, including the top 10 in points for each of the
ASCS Sooner, Lone Star and Gulf regions. Plus, many ASCS National Series stars can be expected, as there is no
National series event scheduled for the weekend. Many ‘invaders’ from across the U.S. will also take on the ¼ mile high
banks; as was the case with last year’s winner, Brian Brown. The pre-entry list will be published as drivers sign up at
the track website.
Topless 100. As in the 2008 Cowtown Sprint Nationals weekend, the wildly popular 9th annual Topless 100 for Modifieds
will join the sprint car action. Their feature will take place following the sprint car feature event. Advance online pre-
entry is highly recommended by October 3rd, as it reserves you a pit space and will save drivers $25. No phone-in
registrations or pit reservations are allowed. Practice will be held on October 8th with qualifying action on October 9th.
Early entries include Sam Hafertepe Jr., Scooter Bates, Glenn Leuschner, Tom Lorenz and Danny Caldwell.
Topless Limited Modifieds and the Winged 600’s Championships will round out the racing action with each winner
taking home a $1,500 payday. Advance online pre-entry is highly recommended by October 3rd, as it reserves you a pit
space and will save drivers $25. No phone-in registrations or pit reservations are allowed. Practice October 8th and
qualifying the 9th.
Two-day grandstand passes. Increased ’09 purse, but no increased ticket or pit prices! Fans can save $10 by
purchasing their tickets online at the track website through October 8; as 2-day adult grandstand pass will cost just $35.
Tickets will be available at the gate on race night for $20 on Friday and $25 on Saturday. Youth and child tickets will
remain at just $5 and $2 on each night. Visit www.CowtownSpeedway.com for complete details, including the event
flyer. Pit passes are $35 each night and are available on race night by cash only; as the track payback is in cash. No
checks allowed.
2nd Annual Cowtown Fan Fest. On October 10th, race fans of all ages holding event tickets for that night’s Nationals
finale will be allowed into the pit area from 3pm until 4:15pm. Fans will be able to check out the cars and stars in all four
of the race divisions, take pictures, visit with the teams, purchase team apparel & merchandise; plus get a behind the
scenes look before the action takes place on the track. Plus, many prizes will be given away to race program holders
attending the Fan Fest. Last year’s Fan Fest grand prize received a sublimated pit crew shirt from Kevin Ramey.
Travel Tips. For flight options, www.Travelocity.com is a great source of information, especially by clicking their ‘Last
Minute Deals’ section that includes hotels and even car rentals; many at heavily discounted prices. Also note that DFW
serves as a major airport hub for the entire U.S., and with a bit of planning, you can fly in and out during the week
affordably; so you can return for the following weekend’s racing action.
Weather. October is typically dry and highs in the 80’s. We will monitor the weather as the event date gets closer.
It’s Almost Here. We look forward to see many new teams and faces at the Cowtown Sprint Nationals, and please visit
CowtownSpeedway.com for the latest event news, as the Nationals page will be updated regularly.
