SECA Releases 2015 Weekly Championship & Bonus Race Program

As we approach the 2015 season, SECA officials are pleased to announce its new Weekly Championship & Bonus Race Format. The 2015 SECA City Chevrolet Weekly Championship point fund has been increased to $20,000 and will pay out 25 positions. In an effort to balance the payout, the champion will collect $5000 and the 25th position will pay $250.

SECA Bonus Races continue to be popular amongst our teams that enjoy visi...ting a wide variety of SECA sanctioned tracks. Bonus Races are designed to provide higher paying events for our teams but also reward the partnering tracks that choose to host them. In past years, attending Bonus Races were vital to the success of racers competing for the Weekly Championship. Thanks to our partnering tracks and teams, SECA continues to grow. Realizing the SECA is founded on the weekly track and racer, we have redesigned the Bonus Race Format in an effort to provide the proper overall balance for 2015.

Bonus Race Format: Drivers attending bonus races will receive 5 Bonus Points toward their end of the year points total. The maximum bonus races a driver can claim will be 4.

“We want SECA to cater more to a true weekly driver. While we considered completely separating the Bonus Races from the Weekly Championship, there is a fine line in SECA creating a format that is beneficial for tracks hosting Bonus Races and drivers that loyally support their weekly track”, stated SECA's Timmy Mcabee SECA. "This new format retains the value of the Bonus Race program without sacrificing the effort of those drivers who choose not to travel as much as their fellow racers."

Several partnering tracks are currently finalizing their Bonus Race dates for 2015 and that schedule will be released very soon. We can tell you that SECA's first ever trip to The Dirt Track @ Charlotte on May 22nd will indeed be a 2015 Bonus Race! More details are forthcoming and as we look forward to the most exciting season in South Eastern Crate Association history, we simply wanted to say "Thank You & Good Luck in 2015"!

RockAuto.com March To Charlotte

With over $50,000 up for grabs in the first quarter of the season, the “RockAuto.com March To Charlotte” will kick off the 2015 SECA season in blockbuster fashion.

Cherokee, Carolina and Friendship Speedway’s all will host their respective bonus races during the month of March. Each track has it’s own identity, and characteristics. Friendship was just reconfigured before 2014 and produced extremely tight racing around the newly formed high banks. Cherokee Is always fast, and after success with new clay last season, the guys decided to do it again while making slight changes to the banking. Carolina Speedway will be the biggest mystery, as the widening project along with the new clay is now complete and it will be a fresh start for the drivers there.

These three races will lead us into the month of May and the 4th& 5th bonus races which will be at The Dirt Track at Charlotte on May 22nd and a short trip to the Scott Childress promoted Harris Speedway on the 24th.

Feb 28 & March 1 at Cherokee Speedway in conjunction with one of the speedways marque events. (March Madness) The SECA portion will pay $2,500 to win.

March 6 & 7 at Carolina Speedway as part of the fan favorite Skyler Trull Memorial. The SECA portion will pay $3,000 to the winner.

March 28 the guys will finish up March with a $2,000 to win event at Friendship Speedway as part of the North Carolina Modified Nationals Weekend. (Friendship will also host a $1,000 to win weekly race on Friday night March 27th.)

May 22nd SECA will make their first appearance to the Dirt Track at Charlotte for the 4th Bonus race of the season. This event will be a $2,000 event.

May 24th Harris Speedway will once again close out Memorial Day weekend with the 5th bonus race also paying $2,000 to win.

There are other bonus races throughout the season, including Hartwell, Sumter and Lancaster Speedway . Those official dates will be released soon.
