SALEM, Ohio — Quaker City Motorsports Park is set to host the “Big Buck Nationals” on August 8-10. There is a $5,000-to-win, 64-car Shootout scheduled for Friday, Aug. 8. There are 32 No Box cars and 32 Box cars, which will run separately until the final round.

As per the name, racers from Ohio, Pennsylvania, and surrounding areas will compete for big bucks Saturday, Aug. 9, and Sunday, Aug 10. The Top (Box) class features $10,000-to-win races, and the Mod (No Box) class will race for $5,000-to-win each day. In addition, the Junior Dragsters will have $600 Summit Bucks for the winner’s purse.

Although rain has been a nuisance of late with washouts the last two Saturdays, Tom Edinger and Jerry Coblentz were the big winners on Friday, July 18. Edinger raced to the top prize in the Top (Box) class as he captured the final-round win over Mike Alfman. Coblentz took the victory in Mod (No Box) with Tim Miller the runner-up.

Unfortunately, rain also washed out racing last Saturday night, but Quaker City was able to get in Gamblers races on Friday. Alfman was the Top (Box) winner with Dan Hageman runner-up. Tim Singer scored the win in Mod (No Box) as Steve Tigelman also advanced to the final round.

There is another test-and-tune, along with Gamblers races scheduled for this Friday night. It is followed by IHRA Summit SuperSeries points races on Saturday.
