Ultimate Street Nights Kick-Off this Saturday, May 18, Featuring Texas 275 Race Cars.

In addition to the more than 20 Fast Friday street legal events at Texas Motorplex in 2013, there will also be one feature Saturday night of Ultimate Street Racing each month between May and November.

The gate and racing times will be later. The racing will be quicker and faster. The action will be even more heated.

Gates for the Ultimate Street Nights, starting on Saturday, May 18, will open at 7 p.m. and racing will take place between 8 p.m. and 2 a.m.

Certain nights, including the series opener, will also feature the Texas 275 cars.

“The 275 cars will be out a few times and they really put on a show,” Texas Motorplex Competition Director, Eric McClelland, said. “The 275 cars run 1/8th mile in 4.70-seconds and they are exciting to watch. Some of them are even street legal cars.

“Overall we’re excited about the new Saturday night program because it’s easier for people who work to come out. It’s a fun night to stay out late and race and we’re going to have a show-and-shine area in addition to racing so people can show off their rides.”

Ultimate Street Nights will be just $15 to race, and $10 to watch. Racing is open to anyone with a valid driver’s license and a street legal car.

The six-event series will also help determine the high school participants representing Texas Motorplex at the Oct. 18-21 Summit E.T. Finals. The top high school talent will earn a place on the Motorplex team and will compete for big prizes on the region’s biggest racing stage.

Texas Motorplex was the first all-concrete stadium-style drag racing facility ever constructed. Built in 1986, Texas Motorplex has been the place of many drag racing milestones and world record performances. The Billy Meyer-owned facility hosts a number of racing and car show events between March and November each year and also features the Champion’s Club – an 11,000 square-foot facility – that serves fully catered events throughout the year.

Trackside Motorhome Spaces are Available

Trackside Motorhome Spaces are Available
Stay trackside and watch the races from the comfort of your motorhome

Texas Motorplex has space openings on both the pit side and the spectator side Motorhome Corrals for the 28^th annual AAA Texas NHRA Fall Nationals, September 19-22, 2013.

Spectator side motorhome spaces are $1,000 for the weekend, include water, waste, and electrical hookups on 15 ft wide by 30 ft long concrete spaces at the end of the spectator grandstands.   The spectator side motorhome corral spaces do not include tickets as part of the space, you will need to purchase tickets for everyone staying in the motorhome for each day of the event.

Pit side motorhome spaces are located between the pit side food court and the Finish Line Grandstands, they are 25 Ft wide and include 4 Full Event tickets to the AAA Texas NHRA Fall Nationals, all for just $1,500.  The pit side motorhome spaces do not include any hook ups so the motorhomes must be self contained.   We will have a service company that will make rounds throughout the weekend when that can deliver water and pump waste for a small fee.

Parking for one support vehicle and one motorhome is included with the space.  Parking is extremely limited and any additional vehicles will need to park in the main spectator parking lot and enter through the spectator gate.

Spaces are very limited and available only by reservation.
