Saturday night, the Firecracker 100 will feature 50-lap main events each for the late model stock appearing and the late model outlaw cars, with each race paying $2,000 to win.

Also, the top-eight finishers in the stock appearing feature are guaranteed starting slots in the outlaw main event, so one driver could take both features in the same stock appearing entry. Saturday’s program includes a 25-lap semi modified main event, paying $1,000 to the winner, as well as 20-lap features for the hobby and super stock divisions. Qualifying for starting posi- tions, which was held last Fri- day, will stand for this Saturday’s races.
