KYLE, TX (November 14, 2008) – In today’s economic situation, everyone is looking for more affordable ways to do things – and Thunderhill Raceway is no exception.
Starting with the 2009 racing season, Thunderhill Raceway will be introducing a new “Mini Stock” class to bring a new, affordable opportunity to potential racers.
The Mini Stocks will be a novice class that consists of domestic or imported compact, front-wheel drive cars. These cars will be completely factory stock, with safety modifications only. An unaltered VIN plate must be on the vehicle – along with the factory installed engine, transmission, wheels, etc. No aftermarket parts of any kind will be allowed.
A few safety modifications will be required – including a four-point roll cage, driver door bars and a window net. A racing seat and five-point racing harness are highly recommended.
“If you’ve always wanted to be a race car driver and you don’t want to spend a lot of money, here’s your chance to be a part of the action,” said Rick Day, Race Director at Thunderhill Raceway. “You can find a lot of great deals on this type of car and spend a minimal amount of time and money to get it ready to race.”
The detailed rules for this new class will be announced at the Drivers’ Rules and Registration meeting on Saturday, November 22, at 4 p.m., in the THR Garage Lounge. Drivers will be able to register and reserve a car number for this new class at this meeting. The complete schedule for 2009 will also be announced during the meeting.
Thunderhill Raceway is a 3/8-mile, asphalt D-shaped oval track that’s located at 24801 IH-35, just north of San Marcos (TX) near Yarrington Road (Exit #210).
