Front Row Challenge/Ultimate Challenge Tickets Up for Grabs
Today!
(Bill W) April 6, 2009 – Remaining tickets for the Musco Lighting Front Row
Challenge and the USAC Searsboro Telephone Company Ultimate Challenge are up
for grabs! Starting today you can purchase your tickets for both events by
calling McTwo Promotions at 515-957-0020, Tuesday through Thursday from 10
a.m. to 4 p.m.
Infield party passes will be $25 and may be purchased in advance as well.
The events are held at the ½ mile Southern Iowa Speedway in Oskaloosa, Iowa,
and along with the Nationals events at Knoxville are a vital part of
Southern Iowa Sprintweek. “We think we offer a great event for people of all
ages, without raising the prices every year,” says McTwo Promotions’ Terry
McCarl. “We always have plenty of giveaways for the kids, and try to make an
‘event’ out of it. We want these races to be an ideal retreat for any race
fan, and we do our best to make this thing bigger and better every year!”
The 14th Annual Musco Lighting Front Row Challenge has quickly become one of
the “must see” events on any race fans calendar, and will take place this
year on August 10. Entertainment, as well as great racing is always a part
of the “FRC”, and this year the winner’s share will be upped to $10,000!
Daryn Pittman won last year’s edition, ahead of Tyler Walker, Tim Kaeding,
Roger Crockett and Jason Solwold. You know the field will include the best
in the sprint car business again this year, especially with the winner’s
share upped to 10K! Fans are always on the edge of their seats at the Front
Row Challenge. Usually their eyes are focused on the rear of the field to
see if anyone can claim the Front Row Challenge and $50,000 to win from the
tail!
The best drivers in the “traditional” non-wing sprint car world battle it
out in a “One night stand for 15 grand!” on Tuesday, August 11. The event
will be again be sanctioned by USAC, ensuring that the best drivers in
non-wing sprint car racing will be on hand. Last year’s event was won by
Dave Darland, and he was followed to the line by Kevin Swindell, Jerry Coons
Jr., Cole Whitt and Hunter Schuerenberg. Darland paired with car owner Scott
Benic, who has fielded three winning cars in the UC (also for Boston Reid
and Levin Jones). They are expected back to defend their title. The action
is always intense from the first green thrown to the last checkered flag at
the Ultimate Challenge!
“We’re excited about USAC being a part of this event,” says McCarl. “You
can’t beat the winner’s paycheck, that’s for sure! Having Tony Stewart and
Kasey Kahne bring their race teams is huge for us. There should be an
impressive field of cars here! You never know who is going to rise to the
top in this thing. We have a different winner every year it seems.”
Don’t miss either event…order your tickets by calling 515 957-0020 today!
