RISLONE URC SPRINT SERIES
VIPER VENOM POSTS PLENTY OF FUEL FOR URC RACERS IN 2012
Paul Messick of Viper Venom Fuels will be returning to URC in 2012 offering a free drum of Viper Fuel to the feature winner if they are using the product. This program will be offered throughout the season for all URC events in 2012 and is limited to one free drum per team. Viper Fuel offers 99.99% pure methanol for $135 per fifty-five gallon drum and is available by contacting Paul Messick at 302-757-6918 or by e-mail at sales@vipervenomfuels.com.
The feature winner will receive their free drum of Viper Fuel when arranging their next purchase of fuel. "We gained a lot of exposure working with URC in the past and look forward to another great season", said Messick.
URC will open their 2012 Rislone Sprint Series at the Delaware International Speedway on Saturday, April 28. The Potomac (MD) and Winchester (VA) Speedway's are new stops on the schedule for URC in the coming season. Last year marked the return to the Port Royal Speedway for URC, unfortunately bad weather forced the cancellation of that event, Port Royal is back on URC's schedule for 2012 on Saturday night, August 25.
Special events already on the schedule include the $3,500 to win Jack Gunn Memorial to take place at the Selinsgrove Speedway on Saturday, May 12 and the Rislone Nationals paying $5,000 to win at the Williams Grove Speedway on Friday night, August 3rd. Pioneer Pole Buildings is also returning as a sponsor of the season finale at Grandview on Saturday night, October 13 offering $3,000 to the winner of the 25 lap feature event.
At this time, URC is not looking to add more dates to the 2012 schedule, but we are working at increasing the payoff at two of the existing events. Feedback over the past weekend was positive that our schedule is offering the right number of events for our competitors based on the economy and expected travel expenses in the new season. The obvious decline in race dates is due to less shows at the Delaware International Speedway and the missing dates from Georgetown and Rolling Wheels.
All regular URC sprint features pay $2,000 to the winner with several higher paying events throughout the season. In 2011, URC paid out during the season $15,000 through the Rislone Loyalty Program, rewarding car owners for their weekly support and loyalty. Similar programs are being arranged for the coming season and will be announced over the next few weeks.
Another incentive offered to URC competitors in the coming season is the tire pricing. Thanks to American Racer and support from Rislone, URC competitors will be paying an all time lowest cost for their tires. An American Racer right rear will sell for $159, the left rear for $155 and fronts may be purchased for $138, unheard of pricing for sprint car tires today. Adjusting the tire pricing with some of the Rislone URC point fund money will help all our competitors throughout the entire Rislone URC Sprint Series.
For the race fans, URC will spice up the program by using the Delaware Start for all original starts and restarts up to, two laps to go. The Delaware State will feature the pole car all alone on the front row with the rest of the field double file. This is expected to provide more passing and offer drivers who start deep in the pack, an opportunity to be in contention for the lead in the late stages of the race.
