WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. - While weather-related construction delays forced the postponement the International Hot Rod Association (IHRA) Summit Sportsman Spectacular at the brand-new facility in March, the track is ready to host the exciting Summit Sportsman Spectacular June 1-3.

The double-race weekend will be June 1-3 at Xtreme Raceway Park, Ferris, Texas. The event features huge payouts with $10,000-to-win on Moser Engineering Saturday and $5,000-to-win on Sunday.

IHRA Ironman trophies and large championship checks will be presented to event champions on Saturday and Sunday.

IHRA partner Imagine That Customs will also award a custom painted one-of-a-kind display helmet to one competitor that weekend.

The biggest value comes for racers who pre-enter for the event. All pre-entered competitors will get a buy one / get one free offer. When you pre-enter and buy an entry for Saturday's race, you will get a free entry for Sunday's race.

All pre-entries from the originally scheduled event in March will be honored for the weekend.

In addition to having the opportunity to get two races for the price of one, the Summit Sportsman Spectacular events feature a set of unique bonus opportunities for all current IHRA Summit SuperSeries racers.

The national contingency program is also available for all IHRA members who advance to the final two rounds each day. As part of its contingency program, Summit Racing Equipment will now pay for the win, runner-up and semifinal positions.
