Super Late Models Take Center Stage at MIS Fall Classic
The 2012 racing season will come to an exciting finish on Sunday, September 23rd with the running of the MIS Fall Classic and a $3000 to win Super Late Model event. The overall winner will be determined by combined finishes in the Twin 50 lap features known as the Race of Champions.
Twenty-four drivers have an automatic starting position in the Twin 50’s if they choose to race. These positions are based on the results of the three Triple Crown events held in June, July, and August. A total of thirty cars will start the feature so there is plenty of opportunity for a first-time car or a car that just missed out on the top twenty-four to come to MIS and make the starting field.
“We will start thirty cars in the first fifty lap feature. Two qualifying races will help determine the starting order with a minimum of three cars who are not in the top twenty four right now transferring to the feature from each qualifier. If not all twenty-four “automatics” show up, we will move additional cars up from the qualifying races,” said MIS Business / Marketing Manager Jason Tyler.
Drivers who have raced previously this season in the Triple Crown Challenge events will receive an additional $100 for each race they attended. The minimum payout for a car starting both features is $400 with some restrictions applying.
Pit gates on Sunday, September 23rd will open at 10:00 AM with practice at 11:30 AM, qualifying at 1:15 PM with opening ceremonies and racing to follow.
The following list includes the top twenty-four drivers who have earned their way into the Race of Champions.

The Legends return to Madison International Speedway on Sunday, September 23rd for the MIS Fall Classic and will be competing on a slightly reconfigured “Ring of Fire.”
“We made some changes when we put the wall back,” said Jason Tyler. “It’s nothing major but it will be a little different.”
The Legends feature will be 30 laps which will be their longest ever event at Madison. Tyler added, “The Legends racing has been very good this year and they will definitely put on a great show this Sunday.”
Four Cylinders Head to Big Track for Fall Classic
Small cars…big track. That’s what you’ll find when the International Four Cylinders come to Madison International Speedway on Sunday, September 23rd for the MIS Fall Classic. The International Four Cylinders will be joining the Super Late Models, Legends, and Central States Super Cups along with the One on One Street Drags.
Based on Jefferson rules, the International Four Cylinder cars will be racing on Wisconsin’s Half-Mile. American Short Trackers are also eligible if they run street legal tires and Bandit cars are also welcome to compete. Short Trackers and Bandits should contact Dave Oswald at 608.839.5507 for any rules / eligibility questions.
Central States Super Cups and One on One Street Drags at MIS Fall Classic
The smallest cars to race at MIS will return for the Fall Classic as the traveling series from the Central States Super Cups comes to the Ring of Fire.
The One on One Street Drags also return to the quarter mile after a very successful event last month. Potential drivers should contact Jason Tyler at 608.513.9709 for more information.
