Bandolero’s, Super X-Cars and X-Cars take part in new Saturday series
As part of Waterford Speedbowl’s increase
from five to six weekly divisions on its NASCAR Whelen All-American Series
program in 2011, divisions from the track’s popular mid-week Wild ‘n Wacky
Wednesdays will be part of the action on select Saturday events. The
Bandoleros, Super X-Car and X-Car divisions will each compete in a limited
number of Saturday events as part of the special shootout series.
Saturday Showdown Series champions will be crowned separate from the
Wednesday season under a unique points system.
The Showdown Series for each of the three divisions begins April 2 at
Budweiser Blastoff Weekend, the Speedbowl’s 61st consecutive season
opener. Each division will take to the track for the first time of the
year on Saturday of the three-day event. Friday, April 1 is practice only
for all race divisions in action during Budweiser Blastoff.
Following Blastoff, the Bandolero division will be in action on the
following Saturday night race programs - April 9, April 23, May 14, June
11, July 2 as part of the annual ‘Mid-season 300’ event, September 3 for
Thunder on the Sound and September 10. Their Showdown Series wraps up on
back-to-back Saturdays in October. The Saturday Night Showdown takes
place October 1 and the 2011 Speedbowl Finale Weekend will see the
Bandoleros in action on October 8.
After Blastoff, the Super X-Cars are in action April 16, May 21, September
24 and for Finale Weekend on October 8. The X-Cars’ Saturday Showdown
Series includes Blastoff Weekend, April 16, July 16, September 17 and
Finale Weekend on October 8. Super X and X-Car competitors will have
extra incentive to take the checkered flag in the special shootout series
with winners receiving a higher payoff than Wednesday series events. In
addition, all finishing positions in Super X and X-Car Showdown Series
events will receive a payout.
The Saturday Showdown Series will award points for each division separate
of their Wild ‘n Wacky Wednesday standings. Points will be distributed in
a special manner - race winners will receive a total of 12 points, with
second position earning 10 points in each event. Third position will earn
9 points, decreasing by 1-point increments through 10th place. Every
finisher from 10th place back will receive 2 points.
The Legends Cars will continue to race on both Wednesday and Saturday
nights and crown champions for each program as they have for the past
several seasons.
