FLAT ROCK/TOLEDO SPEEDWAY BULLETIN-DECEMBER 4, 2023

Thanks to all who attended the banquet, and congratulations again to the champions. As announced at the banquet, Flat Rock Speedway will be getting a full repave at the end of the 2024 season. This includes both the oval and the Figure 8 track.

THANK YOU to Moran Chevrolet (Outlaw Super Late Models), DTS Drive Train Specialists (Street Stocks) and R & M Recycling (Figure 8s) for their continued sponsorship!  We will be announcing additional sponsorships as they are secured.

MEMBERSHIP: 2024 ARCA membership forms are now available and posted at the track websites under the Racer Info tab at the homepage.  There is a separate ARCA membership for Minors that includes the Minor Release as part of that document.  Please be sure to fill out the entire application.

RULES:  2024 changes were emailed in early November and posted on each track’s website.

PRI: If you plan on attending PRI, the ARCA booth will be located at 1425.

We will be posting the complete 2024 schedules prior to the holidays.  We have had some last-minute issues come up with a couple of Touring Series, which in turn affects our divisions/dates that will also be racing with them, so we are addressing them now and making the changes.
