TOP OVAL NATIONALS 360 GUARANTEED
SPOT IN TURKEY NIGHT GRAND PRIX SPRINT CAR
RACE By Scott Daloisio
(Perris, CA, October 5, 2021)
The pot for 360 sprint cars
entering November’s 25th Annual Heimark
Anheuser Busch Budweiser Oval Nationals at
Perris Auto Speedway just got sweeter.
Promoter Don Kazarian announced on Tuesday
morning that the 360 driver who
accumulates the most points over the three
days will get a guaranteed starting spot
in the USAC West Coast Sprint Car Series
finale at the Turkey Night Grand Prix on
the Ventura Raceway.
The
announcement comes when both races are
celebrating historic birthdays in 2021. In
addition to it being the 25th anniversary
of the Oval Nationals, the Turkey Night
Grand Prix, which began in 1934 at Gilmore
Stadium in Hollywood (the track is where
the CBS studios are now located), will be
celebrating its 80th anniversary on
Thanksgiving weekend. It will be the sixth
time the race has taken place at the
picturesque Ventura track which is located
adjacent to the beach on the Ventura
County Fairgrounds.
A few weeks ago, Kazarian announced
that the highest finishing 360 on all
three nights of the Oval Nationals will
receive a $500.00 bonus. Each night the
second highest finishing 360 will get
$300.00 and third highest will pocket
$200.00 extra. These bonuses are
guaranteed whether the top finishers are
in the A mains or not.
“There are
a lot of very strong 360 sprint cars in
California these days and a lot of top
racers driving them,” Kazarian said. “360
powered cars have already won two races
against the 410s in the USAC/CRA series
this year. Ten years ago, that was almost
unheard of. We decided to give teams with
360s some special incentives to race in
the Oval Nationals this year with the cash
bonuses. These bonuses will be paid in
addition to their regular purse winnings.”
“On Monday, I decided to give my
friend Jim Naylor of the Ventura Raceway a
call,” Kazarian continued. “I wanted to
see if he would consider giving the
highest 360-point driver in the Oval
Nationals a guaranteed starting spot in
the USAC West Coast Sprint Car main event
at the Turkey Night Grand Prix on November
27th. Jim liked the idea. It is another
great reason for 360 teams to come run the
Oval Nationals. In addition, it will
enable extra cross promotion between The
PAS and Ventura leading up to each of our
biggest races of the season.”

Nationals at the following link

All three nights of racing will be
full shows with qualifying, heat races,
preliminary mains, and A Main events. The
Thursday “Bill Pratt Main Event” and
Friday’s “Evelyn Pratt Main Event” will be
30-laps each. Saturday’s finale will be
40-laps. The top six drivers in points
after the first two nights will not have
to qualify on Saturday and will be seeded
directly into the A Main event. They will
contest “The Super Six Dash” to determine
the lineup for the first three rows of the
40-lap finale. The complete racing format
can be viewed at the following link

The
Thursday and Friday main events will pay
$5,000.00 each to win and $500.00 to
start. Saturday’s 40-lap finale will pay
$10,000.00 to win and $1,000.00 to start.
The complete purse for all three nights is
available at the following link

In
addition to the three nights of racing,
there will be a Wednesday night practice
session for Oval Nationals entered cars.
The practice session will be free for fans
in the grandstands.
Camping will be
available for the Oval Nationals beginning
at noon, on Wednesday, November 3rd in the
old campground. The cost is $25.00 per
night.
