Norwalk, Ohio, June 7, 2011 – With the biggest IHRA sportsman drag race ever held less than a month away, the International Hot Rod Association and Class Racer.com are pleased to announce a unique and exciting partnership for the upcoming Summit Racing Equipment Sportsman Spectacular July 8-10 at Maryland International Raceway.
In addition to acting as a partner in promoting the IHRA’s 40th anniversary celebration to be held at the famed Maryland facility, Class Racer.com will also sponsor the Super Stock and Stock racing classes at the richest sportsman race ever held by the IHRA.
“I’m excited about teaming up with IHRA’s Summit Racing Sportsman Spectacular events,” said Ken Miele, owner of Class Racer.com. “The class racer is always looking for events that cater to them and IHRA has done that with the Summit Racing Equipment Sportsman Spectacular events.”
Open to all racers, and featuring all seven IHRA touring classes, the Summit Racing Equipment Sportsman Spectacular events pay $5,000 to win in each class. All IHRA and valid NHRA memberships, licenses and chassis certifications will be accepted. In addition to the big payout, each event will award national event contingency and an IHRA Ironman. IHRA members who win their classes will also earn automatic entry into the Summit Racing Tournament of Champions in October.
“We are pleased to have Class Racer on board as a partner for the upcoming Summit Racing Equipment Sportsman Spectacular. Class Racer is the go-to site for all things class racing, especially Stock and Super Stock, and to have them teaming with us to get the message out for this event will be a huge plus,” said Skooter Peaco, IHRA VP of Race Operations. “We are excited to be presenting the biggest sportsman drag race in IHRA history and to have a promotional partner like Class Racer will be invaluable.”
In addition to competition in IHRA’s regular Pro-Am classes, including the Class Racer.com Super Stock and Stock classes, the two events will also feature record payouts in Top and Mod and will include a large contingent of Junior Dragsters. Competition in Top, Mod, and Junior Dragster will be open to all competitors regardless of racing affiliation.
The first of two Summit Racing Equipment Sportsman Spectacular events will take place July 8-10 at legendary Maryland International Raceway. The second event will take place October 14-16 at Virginia Motorsports Park.
Class Racer was started to give fans across the country a place to share their thoughts and experiences over 10 years ago. At the time there were not many places where racers or fans could go to talk about class racing.
Since then Class Racer has grown into the largest community for talk, live reports, photos and videos specific to class racing and the tech section has become a great tool for new and old racers. Class Racer is a forum dedicated to Class Racing and its community.
