The USCS winged sprint cars headline the two-night weekend of racing action entitled the USCS “Battle at the Beach” at the banked one-third mile clay oval track. The events will also be race # and #4 on the 60-event 22nd season schedule for the series.

The events are part of Southern Raceway’s annual Winter Nationals. This will be a return for the USCS sprint cars to the ¼ mile dirt oval near Pensacola, Florida after an absence of more than a decade.
The United Sprint Car Series portion of the event will give a driver who can sweep the weekend’s elements an opportunity to pick up their share of the over $25,000 in posted cash prize winnings plus contingency awards. Over $4,000 is possible including Friday night’s preliminary USCS sprint car main event win and by also arriving first in the www.rockauto.com USCS Victory Lane after Saturday night’s 30-lap Championship final as well.
