TATER CUP UPDATE: Packing All the Action into Saturday!
Tomorrow, Friday, June 26th is canceled. But here is the great news: turning the Tater Cup into a single-day showdown on Saturday, June 27th. Our track crew is already ahead of the game as the surface is prepped for the impending rainfall, and it is going to be in prime condition for some fast, heavy-traction racing on Saturday.
While we always aim for our marquee events to be two-day show, making this call now saves everyone time and ensures we can deliver the racing experience the racers deserve.
Saturday’s Format
2 Flights of Heat Races, earning both passing and finishing points. The Main Events will be lined up from those points with a 4-car invert.
Caged Clones: Still featuring the big one—a 50-lap main event with an open red at lap 25!

The limited-run Tater Cup T-shirts are officially up for grabs. Because this is a limited run, there will be no re-orders. Several sizes are already down to the low single digits! Don't wait until Saturday night to lock yours down. Order info is in the previous post.
Ultimately thank you to everyone for their support and flexibility. There were multiple different scenarios discussed and vetted for what to do with the event. In the end there is no right call in these situations so we simply due what we feel will delivery the best outcome to the majority of racers.
