We have more exciting announcements to come, but first we would like to welcome the addition of Aaron and Next Level Mechanical as the American Stocks Division Sponsor! And just look at what his support has done to this purse!

In addition to boosting the American Stocks payout for both Saturday and Sunday, Next Level Mechanical is adding an additional $100 BONUS to the other divisions winner Sunday night!

We can't thank Aaron and Next Level Mechanical enough for stepping up and helping us make the return of the Simkins Memorial something special for our racers.
