Rules, Scheduling & Tenative Opening Weekend
The rest of the series remains unchanged from the 2012 season including the 10 race schedule, open tire/brand compound rules, and one right rear per event rule. Unlimited weight breaks will again be utilized to even competition among current full production midget engines and other engines that may be providing less horsepower.
The Montpelier Motor Speedway is set to the open the season the first weekend of April. Currently, a full show is scheduled for Saturday Night, April 6. The possibility of a season opener double header is currently being looked into with a tentatively scheduled Friday Night, April 5 full midget program.
