Great American Stock Car Shootout explodes Tuesday

June 29, 2020

The Hamilton County Speedway driven by Spangler Automotive will host the biggest race of the year when the lights shine brightly this Tuesday, June 30, and Wednesday, July 1, for the Great American Stock Car Shootout at the historic half-mile dirt oval in Webster City, Iowa.

One Stock Car racer could walk away with more than $3,150 in cash and awards while B-Mod pilots battle for as much as $2,300 to win. Hobby Stock chauffeurs are shooting for as much as $1,500 for their efforts.

Every racer will have the chance to pocket some serious cash and every racer will be part of the King of the Hill race. All drivers in all three classes (Seneca Foundry USRA Stock Cars, Stein Heating & Cooling USRA B-Mods and Diamond in the Rough USRA Hobby Stocks) will run two heat races from two different starting spots on Tuesday.

The event will put the spotlight on the best of the best in each divisions, with Stock Cars and B-Mods competing for valuable points in the Christie Door Company Iron Man Challenge.

Passing points will be used and the top 12 drivers will be locked into a Dash for Cash to determine the lineup for the first six rows of the Wednesday night's main events. The remainder go to Last Chance Races on Wednesday.
