$50,000 Triple Crown Bonus for Winchester, Anderson and Pay Less Little 500 Sweep


Series Report

HOLLY, Mich. (April 2, 2013) – A whirlwind week in May awaits the TRUFUEL Must See Racing Xtreme Sprint Series and Must See Racing Supermodified Series as they visit two historic Midwestern tracks for five events in a seven-day span in 2013.

First up is the “Xtreme Speed Challenge” featuring the MUST SEE XTREME SPRINT CAR SERIES and the MUST SEE SUPERMODIFIED SERIES at Winchester Speedway with an open testing day on Saturday May 18th. Racing is on Sunday afternoon, May 19th. Winchester is one of the most notable and intimidating racing venues in the world, serving as a perfect host for the lightning-fast winged sprint cars and the return of the Supers after last year’s first appearance following a 22 year hiatus . Gates open at 10 a.m., with racing getting underway at 2 p.m. Call the Must See Racing HOTLINE at 248-535-5575 or visit mustseeracing.com for advance ticket information.

On Monday, May 20, both series move some 50 miles west to Anderson Speedway, one of the fastest quarter-mile tracks in the world. The Supermodifieds start off the week on Monday night May 20 returning to the Speedway after last year’s inaugural Twin 50’s event. The Winged Sprints are up next on Wednesday May 22nd featuring the Must See Racing 60, one of the most frantic races of the season. A full field of Winged Sprints and Supermodified cars will do battle on the tight confines of the high banks at Anderson Speedway. Gates open at 5 p.m. with racing at 7 p.m.

The week is capped off in grand style with the 65th Pay Less Little 500 at Anderson Speedway on Saturday night, May 25. Must See Racing is the sanctioning body for this iconic racing event. The classic event will see the sprinters remove their wings for the only time this season, competing for their share of one of the largest purses in short track racing. The Little 500 starts at 8 p.m. on Saturday, with practice and qualifying taking place on Wednesday through Friday. Advance race tickets are recommended.

The Triple Crown, presented by Must See Racing, will award the race team that can win the Winchester feature, the MSR60 feature and the Pay Less Little 500 with the same sprint car and driver a whopping bonus of $50,000.00. This brings the total purse and possible bonuses for the week of racing to over $250,000.00.

The exciting opening day at Winchester will feature the MSR Winged Sprint Cars and the MSR Super Modifieds with qualifying, heat races, B Main and Feature events for both series. Last year MSRXSS champion Jojo Helberg of Rohnert Park, California set a new Winchester and World ½ Mile record turning a jaw dropping lap of 12.669 seconds.

Fans will look forward to a host of entertaining activities during the events, including a “hands-on” show car with a live 900HP exhibition, t-shirt and merchandise giveaways, along with driver autograph sessions. The kids bouncy tent and the MSR clown doing the very popular face painting will also return. Stay tuned for pictures of the new Must See Sprint Simulators for the fans.

The events will be telecast Nationally on a tape-delayed basis . Well-known broadcaster Rick Benjamin will serve as play-by-play host, while Hall of Fame driver Tom Bigelow will provide color commentary. Respected writer and broadcaster Dave Argabright will serve as pit reporter.

Dave, I marked these dates on the calendar, but I'm pretty sure you mean 50 miles west of Winchester if going to Anderson.

50 miles east of Winchester will put you in an Ohio cornfield.

This is not the triple crown the real triple crown is ran at the big E if I'm not mistaken!!!!!!

Sick!! I love this idea. As a fan i don't see how you can't get excited about this. Imagine if usac did bonus cash for sprint week wins in a row. A extra grand for each win. But the worlds fastest half mile and greatest sprint car race in the world are fine bookends
