FREMONT, Ohio (May 18, 2003) - Remember the good old days when the previous week's feature winner had to start on the tail of the following week's feature? It created excitement for the fans as the fast drivers had to charge from the tail. Well, Fremont Speedway will have a sort of "throw back" night of racing on Saturday, May 24, with twin features for the 410 sprints.
 
The Budweiser Shoot-Out features will begin with the Bud-Light Feature 25 laps in distance and paying $2,500 to win. The finishing order of that feature will be inverted for the Budweiser Feature, 30 laps in length and paying $3,000 to win. If the same driver wins both features there a $2,000 Bud Bonus Bucks on tap. So, one driver could walk away with $7,500!
 
The pay-outs for both features guarantee the cars that make them will take home some cash, as 22 cars are scheduled to start each feature with a starting pay of $220. In the first Bud-Light Feature, the pay-off is: 1. $2,500; 2. $1,250; 3. $1,000; 4. $750; 5. $700; 6. $650; 7. $600; 8. $550; 9. $525; 10. $500; 11. $400; 12. $375; 13. $350; 14. $325; 15. $300; 16. $275; 17. $250; and 18-22. $220. The Budweiser 30-lap feature will pay: 1. $3,000; 2. $1,400; 3. $1,000; 4. $800; 5. $700; 6. $650; 7. $600; 8. $550; 9. $525; 10. $500; 11. $400; 12. $375; 13. $350; 14. $325; 15. $300; 16. $275; 17. $250; 18-22. $220.
 
The 305 sprints will also be on the racing card and will pay $510 to win and $120 to start!
 
Gates will open at 4:30 p.m. with qualifying at 6:30 p.m. and racing at 7:30 p.m. The 410 sprints must weight at least 1,375 pounds with driver; use the track's spec. Goodyear right rear tire and mufflers are mandatory.
 
Then on Memorial Day, May 26, the True Value Hardware of Woodville will sponsor the return of the American Late Model Series Presented by Sunoco. The 305 sprints and the dirt trucks are also on the racing card. Everything will be moved up one hour with gates opening at 3:30 p.m. and racing at 6:30 p.m.
