In an on-going effort to cap the rising cost of 360 sprint car racing, URC will put into place the following rule effective September 1, 2011. The vacuum oil pan system is NOT approved for URC competition and will be considered a violation of URC's car spec rules, resulting in disqualification.


The Rislone URC Sprint Series will return to the famed Williams Grove Speedway on Friday night, August 26 in a challenge event with the 358 sprints. A draw will be used to determine heat race starting positions and passing points in the heat races will determine the starting line-up for the feature. The 25 lap feature event will pay $2,200 to win and $200 to start. The event is open to all 360 and 358 sprints and a URC license is not required. Sprint cars are required to run on an American Racer right rear tire, the three other corners are open. For URC competitors, this is a full point race with a minimum of earning 70 points.


The following night, Saturday, August 27, the URC sprints will return to the Port Royal Speedway. This event is also open to 358 sprints and qualifying will again go through a draw plus passing points for the heats. The 25 lap feature will pay $2,000 to win and $200 just to start the feature event. This will also be a full point race with a minimum of earning 70 points.


On Saturday night, October 15, URC's season finale will be part of the Grandview Thunder 5-25's. Pioneer Pole Buildings is the race sponsor, paying $3,000 to the winner and $250 to take the green flag. Since this is the last race of the season, and it is a point race, the top 12 in points will be inverted for the starting line-up and 13th - 20th will line-up straight up from points.
