2013 SSP Outback Track Spring
Season Set to Begin on Friday, April 19
Pre-season Open Practice
Sessions Scheduled for Friday, April 12
Newberrytown, PA (January 16, 2013) After another
successful year in 2013, a full season of racing is ready to
kick off at the SSP Outback Track on Friday night, April
19. There will be an open practice session on Friday
night, April 12.
The open practice session is open to all classes of karts,
quarter midgets, lawnmowers and Adult Speedcars. On the
Friday, April 12, the gates will open at 5:30 p.m., with
practice from 6:30 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. The cost is $20.00 per
driver (anyone who practices on the track) and no charge for
anyone else entering the pit area for the open practice
sessions.
The first race of the 9-race Spring Shoot-Out Series will be
Friday night, April 19. The pit gates will open 5:45 p.m.
with a drivers meeting at 7:20 p.m. Open practice begins
at 7:00 p.m. and racing action begins at 7:30 p.m. There
will be no sanctioning body affiliation for either karts or
quarter midgets, but the technical/specification rules will
be very similar to the major sanctioning groups for these
types of cars (W.K.A. and QMA/USAC). The entry fees for
each class will be $20.00 per entry for drivers with the
seasonal (Spring/Summer) license. Pit pass fees for the
driver are included in the entry fee. Non-license drivers
entry fees will be $25.00. Participants may enter more than
one class on a raceday ($12.00 for each additional class).
Trophies will be awarded to the top three in each class
regardless of class entry count. No participants will
be denied racing as SSP will make every effort to define a
class for all drivers who wish to compete.
Pit pass prices (the same since 2008) for non-drivers at the
Outback Track will be $8.00 for everyone ages 18 & older;
Teens & Children ages 11 17 are $5.00; Children 10 years
of age and under are $3.00. Ages 2 & under are admitted
free.
The 9-race Summer Shoot-Out Series will begin on Friday,
June 28 and conclude on Saturday, September 6. There
will be separate point champions crowned from both the
Spring and Summer Shoot-Out Series.
Everyone with a pit pass from the Outback Track will receive
the $2.00 Repeat Fan Discount towards grandstand tickets for
the next nights racing events at the Big Track. Returning
fans are encouraged to write their name, address and phone
number on the back of the stub to be entered into special
