CASA GRANDE, Ariz. — The $5,000-to-win Underwood Dash presented by AME Electrical will debut during the 58th annual running of the Western World Championships on October 24-25 at Central Arizona Raceway.
The pursuit style event will feature 10 cars competing for 12 laps in a winner-take-all special as part of the USAC AMSOIL Sprint Car National Championship / Avanti Windows & Doors USAC CRA Sprint Car Series portion of the program.
The lineup will consist of the top-four finishers from Friday night’s USAC feature starting at the front, followed by Saturday’s three qualifying race winners, followed by the Saturday’s three qualifying race runner-up finishers.
The 12-lap race will take place in four 3-lap segments. After each segment is completed, the last two cars running will be eliminated. Furthermore, if a car stops on the course for any reason, that car is also eliminated.
Four cars will compete in the final segment, and the finishing order among the top-four for the final 3-lap segment will determine the first two rows of Saturday night’s $35,000-to-win feature event.
The Western World at the three-eighths-mile dirt oval will pay $7,500 to Friday night’s feature winner while Saturday’s finale will reward the winner with a $35,000 payday, plus $15,000 in lap leader money and a minimum of $1,000 to start the feature.
Also on the event card for both nights is the Sands Chevrolet Wild West 360 Non Wing Sprint Cars.
