ANNOUNCEMENTS

 

Because of the uncertainty involving the 2012 schedule

for the Ken-Ten Series, Late Models have been added

to the Corbin Speedway schedule for all race nights,

with the exception of Saturday, May 5.

 

For the Demolition Derby on Saturday, April 15 - if

30 cars or more are entered, the feature will pay

$1,000 to win, $300 for second, and $200 for third.

Trophies for heat winners - no money.

Entry fee will be $25.

 

Jim Foley has informed us that he has received
a shipment of tires from Hoosier. Prices, including
tax, are listed here:
1070 - $120 each
790 - $105 each
MC780 - $80 each
Phone number is (606) 539-0500.

 

For anyone with any questions about the upcoming season,
 or who wants to check on comments being made by people
- Keith Page will be at the track on Friday and Saturday
until opening night, working on preparations.
If he's not there when you arrive, he's probably gone
to pick up something, and he'll be back soon.

 

Check the NEWS page for a press release on

the season opening event.

 

In response to a number of questions about the driver

license agreement and number application, we reviewed

the document and decided that those complaining were right.

It was a little too complicated for our operation.

A revised form is below these announcements.

 

All Pure Street competitors should check their rules

on this website for a change in wording in the Weight

section. The phrase "(GM metric chassis)" has been changed

to read "(stock chassis - no modifications)". This has been

done simply as a clarification.

 

2012 Schedule is now posted on the Schedule page.

 

Racers, check the classifieds. Keith Royalty has

a number of Hoosier 1070 scuffs to sell.

 

Keith Page and the Corbin Speedway management team

would like to express our appreciation to all Corbin

competitors - past, present, and all who will be competing

in the 2012 season and beyond - for all the tremendous

 positive feedback we have received from all participants,

both local and surrounding areas. We believe this shows that

the traditional roots of racing are still with us today, and are

alive and growing even in hard economic times. We feel that

have made some great strides in reviving Corbin Speedway,

and are looking forward to what promises to be a very

exciting first year with the new format, as well as with

brand new racing programs to be presented here.

Again, our team thanks you for all of your support.

Together, we all can make a difference and bring our

track back to the tradition of a tremendous place to compete.

 

All 2011 track champions should contact Keith Page as

soon as possible. You will receive first pick of reserved pit

locations in the following order - Late Model, Sportsman,

Pure Street, Modified Mini, and Mini-Cup. No cost involved,

simply a perk for being the track champion. Also, all 2011

track champions will be honored on opening night,

Saturday, March 17, and will receive

their championship trophies.

 

The first event of the 2012 season on Saturday, March 17

will be the Jim Robinson Memorial, in honor of a

tremendous competitor from the Louisville area who

campaigned Late Models all over Kentucky, Indiana,

and Ohio. A true friend to everyone in racing, he

passed away early in January of this year.

 

2012 rules have been completed, and are now available on

this site. General rules applicable to all series except where

differing in each series' rules, are available below the

driver licensing and registration form on this page. All

prospective competitors should read this section thoroughly

as well as their own series rules. Series rules are in the

applicable section.

 

Just to set the record straight - Despite rumors to the contrary,

John E. Davis will have no involvement with the operation of

Corbin Speedway during the 2012 season or the term of the

lease with Page Motorsports. John is extremely busy with his

"day" job, and may make it to the track when he's able to

get home on weekends, but will not be involved in the operation.

 

Page Motorsports has also taken over administration of the

IKO Junior Mini-Cup Series, which will run 10 to 15 events

at Corbin Speedway in 2012. Probably 1st and 3rd weekends.

This will include Outlaw Mini-Cup and IKO Junior Mini-Cup.

Baby Grand Stock Cars will also be involved.

 

For the 2012 Season, Modified Mini will change to Mini-Stock.

Super Street will change to Sportsman.

There will be two Mini-Cup classes, Outlaw Mini-Cup

and Junior Mini-Cup.

Purchase of an entry permits a driver to participate in only one (1) series or division for that event. Participation in any other series or division will require purchase of a separate pit pass at the regular rate of $25 for each additional series or division.

         9.       All drivers must register their full name, social security number, address, phone number, car number and class with track officials before racing. Each driver must complete and execute a W-9 form and biographical form each season.

         8.       Only race team service vehicles will be permitted in the pit area without express permission from the director of competition.

         9.       The number of cars starting the feature race in any series or division will be subject to the track's discretion. A consolation race may be scheduled to fill the final spots in a feature race. Track management reserves the right to line up the start of any race in any manner or fashion to promote competition.

         10.       After a car has been qualified it cannot be requalified for any reason. Any driver changes must be reported to track officials, and the change will result in that car starting from the rear in the consolation race. If there is no consolation race, the car will start at the rear of the feature. Failure to report driver changes will subject the car to disqualification for the night, with other penalties possible at the discretion of track management.

       11.       Rough driving will not be tolerated, and will be dealt with severely, with possible penalties to include forfeiture of prize monies and points due the competitor, and other point penalties if officials deem it applicable. Repeated offenses may result in disqualification for an indefinite period, including the remainder of the season if deemed suitable by officials. Cars may be sent to the rear of the field even though neither car has spun or has brought out the caution flag. Track officials’ judgment will prevail in all cases.

       12.       In the event of a caution flag period, cars will NOT race back to the caution flag. If the white flag has been displayed to the leader, cars will race back to the checkered at the discretion of the flagman. Deliberate spinning or otherwise damaging of a competitor on the final lap in such situations will result in the offending car being placed at the rear of the lead lap cars in the final finishing order and the offended car being awarded the position in which it was placed prior to the incident. Officials' judgment will prevail in such cases.

       13.       For restarts following a caution flag, the field will be lined up in “Dutch” style. The leader will be alone on the front row, with the remainder of the cars in double file according to the running order of the last green flag lap. The car at fault in the incident causing the caution flag will be sent to the rear of the feld for the restart, while the offended car will be allowed to retake his or her position. Officials’ decisions will prevail in regard to incidents in which a competitor is deliberately spun or damaged by another, or in which a car takes action to avoid the incident. Cars which have been lapped will be placed at the rear of the restart field according to their running position.

       14.       The pole sitter will determine the pace of the start at the discretion and direction of the starter/flagman, and the lead car on restarts will determine the pace of the restart. The starter/flagman will have discretion over this area and the authority to direct the pole sitter if necessary.

       15.       All starts and restarts will take place on display of the green flag by the flagman, regardless of the cars’ positions on the track. No passing will be allowed on any start or restart until the green flag has been displayed. The green flag will be displayed for starts and restarts when the field reaches the the line located at the exit of Turn 4. “Jumping” a start may result in the offending car being sent to the rear of the field.

       16.       The red flag means STOP. Drivers must slow down as quickly as safely possible and stop. The driver must remain in the car under red flag conditions. In conditions of extreme heat, drivers may be given verbal permission by track officials to exit the car. However, no adjustments or repairs may be made to the car with hands, tools, or by any other means. Drivers who exit their car without express permission from track officials, and cars on which any work is performed, will be subject to immediate disqualification from that race, and if disqualified will receive no money or points for that particular race. Any car which passes the scene of the accident which caused the red flag condition after having already passed under the red flag will be disqualified for the remainder of that particular race. In the event of an accident too close to the start/finish line to allow cars to stop in time, officials’ judgment as to intent will apply.

       17.       Cars experiencing flat tires must go to the infield or pit area immediately.

       18.       Cars with an issue under the caution flag will be allowed to pit, and will be given a maximum of three (3) laps under the caution to correct the problem and return to the track. Placement in the field will be at officials’ discretion.

       19.       Any cars leaving the track and entering the pit area must maintain a safe speed.  Speeding in the pit area WILL NOT be tolerated. Offenders are subject to disqualification from that day's events and possible permanent disqualification from future events.

       20.       When the layover flag is displayed, the car to which it is displayed must move to the outside of the track unless other instructions are given to drivers prior to the event.  If the layover flag or the black flag is ignored consistently, the car to which it is displayed will not be credited with remaining laps.

       21.       Any race may be declared officially complete at officials' discretion if the halfway point has been reached, or if an inordinate time delay is expected prior to the track being ready for competition.

       22.       Cars which do not report to the lineup on time will go to the rear if the field has started to move, unless ordered to take their original starting position by track officials.

       23.       The driver is responsible for having the car in line for practice, qualifications and racing. If a car can not be qualified with its series, it will start in the rear of the feature or, if a consolation race is necessary, at the rear of the consolation race.

       24.       All weight will be determined by track scales.

       25.       No traction control devices of any kind will be permitted in any series.\

       26.       No use of nitrous oxide or any other performance-enhancing fuel additives will be permitted.

       27.       Track management reserves the right to allow or deny any car or any driver from participating.

Any car found illegal will be disqualified for the night and will forfeit all money and points won for the night. The top three finishing cars in any feature race must report to the tech area in the infield for inspection.
