2024 Castrol® FloRacing Night in America Schedule Hits the Streets
Coming To Lincoln Speedway Thursday, May 9
Ten Races at 9 Venues Highlight Action-Packed Slate
AUSTIN, Texas (December 27, 2023) — The fourth year’s slate for Castrol® FloRacing Night in America has been confirmed. The 2024 campaign for the mega miniseries includes 10 races at 9 tracks in six states.
The nightly purses for 2024 have been adjusted and include a redistribution throughout the field along with two additional starting spots each night.
“We listened to what the drivers wanted, and we’ve restructured our nightly payout for 2024 with emphasis on added money for positions six through 12 in the nightly main event. In fact, we spread over $2,000 across those positions from what we paid the past two years. Additionally, we expanded our nightly feature starting grid from 22 to 24 starters,” shared series General Manager, Ben Shelton. “We are currently working with Senoia Raceway staff on a restructured Peach State Classic finale purse, and we hope to have those details finalized soon. I think the drivers are going to like what they see from us in 2024. From fewer races to a better distributed purse, our staff and our tracks are doing our best to make a difference.”
