JOLIET, Ill. -- We'll see who's ready to go All Out when PINKS comes to Route 66 Raceway - the first true Stadium of drag racing - June 25-26, 2010.

Contestants will gain entry into the show during a qualifying race, held at Route 66 in the Spring, and other special events determined by PINKS All Out and Route 66 Raceway. The date of the qualifying race is yet to be determined. Racer registration information will be released at www.Route66Raceway.com as soon as it is available. Approximately 425 spots will be available for racer registration.

"Our fans have been asking about this event for years and everyone at Route 66 is thrilled that we were able to work with our friends at SPEED to get this on our schedule for 2010," said Craig Rust, president, Chicagoland Speedway/Route 66 Raceway. "PINKS All Out gets to the heart of what drives drag racing. It's a do-it-or-go-home approach. We're proud to welcome it to Route 66 - the first true stadium of the sport."

Entries are limited to door cars that record a time of 12.99 seconds or quicker over the quarter-mile. Drivers must have a valid driver's license and be 18 years of age or older.
