Michigan Track to Host IHRA Summit Sportsman Spectacular

Monday, 15 January 2018

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — U.S. 131 Motorsports Park has been named a host track for the International Hot Rod Association (IHRA) Summit Sportsman Spectacular.

The double-race weekend for the IHRA’s new bracket racing program is scheduled for Aug. 17-19 at the Martin, Michigan facility.

The IHRA Summit Sportsman Spectacular debuts March 9-11 with double-race weekends at the new Xtreme Raceway Park, Ferris, Texas and Farmington Dragway, Mocksville, N.C.

Other dates announced include: Keystone Raceway Park, May 18-20, Darlington Dragway, May 25-27, Dragway 42 in Ohio, June 8-10, Maryland International Raceway, August 24-26 and Memphis International Raceway, September 28-30. The rest of the schedule will be announced in the coming weeks.

The IHRA Summit Sportsman Spectacular was created to produce a fun double-race weekend with increased purses that are affordable for grassroots, bracket-racing competitors who support their local tracks each week.

Points acquired at this event will count towards US 131 Motorsports Park track championships.

The biggest value comes for anyone who pre-enters for the event. All pre-entered racers will get a buy one / get one free offer to help kick off our 2018 season. When you pre-enter and buy an entry for Saturday’s race, you will get a free entry for Sunday’s race. Pre-entries are available up to Aug. 3, 2018.

In addition to having the opportunity to get two races for the price of one, the Summit Sportsman Spectacular events feature a set of unique bonus opportunities for all current IHRA Summit SuperSeries racers. There are cash bonuses for the Summit SuperSeries member that goes the furthest in eliminations or win the event. 

There is also a national contingency program that is available for all IHRA members who advance to the final two rounds each day. As part of its contingency program, Summit Racing Equipment will now pay for the winner, runner-up and semifinal positions on-site at every Sportsman Spectacular event.
