Castrol FloRacing Night in America
CFNiA Doubleheader Set for April 18-19
AUSTIN, Texas (April 14, 2023) — In less than a week the 2023 Castrol® FloRacing Night in America campaign roars to life. The third season for the mega miniseries will start in fine style with a pair of $23,023-to-win events.
Tony Stewart’s Eldora Speedway (Rossburg, Ohio) kicks off the party on Tuesday, April 18 before the traveling miniseries rolls into Jim Price’s Brownstown (Ind.) Speedway on Wednesday, April 19.
A talent-laden roster of drivers is expected at both events. Competitors already voicing an intent to pursue the miniseries championship in 2023 include defending champion, Brandon Sheppard, along with Ricky Thornton Jr., Bobby Pierce, Hudson O’Neal, Mike Marlar, Garrett Alberson, and Tyler Erb.
Last year’s series winners at Eldora Speedway and Brownstown Speedway, Kyle Larson and Jonathan Davenport are among the stellar list of entries currently expected for both races.
The 2023 Castrol® FloRacing Night in America champion will receive $75,000 if they have perfect attendance at all contested events or a guaranteed $50,000 without perfect attendance, which is up from $30,000 in 2022.
Additionally, the second-place finisher will receive $20,000 (up from $15,000 in 2022), while third in the final standings has been increased to $10,000.
The total point payout for the 2023 Castrol® FloRacing Night in America is as follows:
1)$50,000 ($75,000 championship with perfect attendance) 2)$20,000 3)$10,000 4)$7,000 5)$6,000 6)$5,000 7)$4,000 8)$3,750 9)$3,500 10)$3,000
A driver’s best 10 finishes will count toward the series championships. Apart from the championship bonus posted for perfect attendance, drivers are not required to enter a minimum number of events to be eligible for the season-ending point-fund.
On Tuesday, April 18 the Castrol® FloRacing Night in America Super Late Models will be joined on the program by a complete program for the DIRTcar UMP Modifieds and Eldora Stocks.
Then on Wednesday, April 19 Brownstown (Ind.) Speedway takes center stage with another $22,022-to-win Super Late Model program. DIRTcar Modifieds will accompany the night’s action.
