TULSA, Okla. (March 29, 2017) NASCAR with Sprint Cars for dessert, or maybe it’s the other way? Either way, it’s a winning combination for any race fan as Tony Stewart presents the Texas Sprint Car Nationals sponsored by Machinery Auctioneers at the Texas Motor Speedway Dirt Track on Friday, April 7 and Saturday, April 8 with the Lucas Oil American Sprint Car Series National Tour presented by the MAVTV Motorsports Network along with Limited Modifieds.

 

With track prep already underway for the start studded weekend, teams will have a chance to test the surface on Thursday, April 6 as a Practice Session has been added from 9:00 P.M. to 11:00 P.M. (CDT). The practice is free for teams participating in the weekend’s racing action. Pits at the Dirt Track will open at 6:00 P.M. to allow teams time to get in and setup.
For any team not already parked during Thursday’s practice, Pits on Friday, April 7 will open at Noon. Grandstands will open both nights at 6:00 P.M. with Hot Laps at 7:30 P.M. Opening Ceremonies are slated for 8:05 P.M. (CDT).
Along with the stars like Sam Hafertepe, Jr., Wayne Johnson, Johnny Herrera, and the rest of the Lucas Oil ASCS National Tour presented by the MAVTV Motorsports Network, some of the best to ever wheel a Sprint Car, or in this case you can include Midget, will also be dropping in as Tony Stewart, Christopher Bell, and Sammy Swindell have all confirmed they will be in competition with more on the way.
