Watch the All Stars & Sprint Car Racing’s Elite Live on FloRacing and the FloSports App
ROSSBURG, Ohio (August 18, 2020) – Eldora Speedway officials, in
concert with the Ollie’s Bargain Outlet All Star Circuit of Champions
presented by Mobil 1, have announced an addition to Eldora’s 2020
calendar.
A new event – the “Governors Reign” – is scheduled for Tuesday,
September 22nd and Wednesday, September 23rd. Sanctioned by the All
Star Circuit of Champions (ASCoC), the event is expected to attract
several of the nation’s top stars from the 410-cubic inch-powered
winged-sprint car division.
FloRacing, the official livestream partner of Eldora Speedway and the
All Star Circuit of Champions (ASCoC), will livestream both nights on
FloRacing.com and via the FloSports app iOS, Android, Apple TV, Roku,
Amazon Fire and Chromecast.
The champion of Wednesday’s “Governors Reign” will earn $50,000 while
feature race starters are guaranteed a minimum of $1,500 from a posted
purse similar to that paid at the Kings Royal just a few years ago. The
preliminary feature on Tuesday night will pay a national series
standard $10,000-to-win and $800-to-start. All non-qualifiers will be
paid tow money.
The production teams from Eldora Speedway, DirtonDirt, and FloRacing
will once again collaborate to produce the livestream production. Fans
watching at home on their favorite device will hear the action called
just as it is called from Eldora’s public address system. A large-scale
best-in-class event production, complete with multiple-camera angles,
instant replays and live scoring is planned as the group endeavors to
give fans an experience similar to what they see on Eldora’s giant turn
two video board.
In addition to all of FloRacing’s motorsports offerings, subscribers
also receive complete access to the entire FloSports network of
verticals ranging from cycling, wrestling, football, baseball,
softball, grappling and more. Best of all, subscribers can watch the
races across all screens by downloading the FloSports app on iOS,
Android, Apple TV, Roku, Amazon Fire and Chromecast.
In accordance with current Ohio Department of Health orders, the total
number of participants is expected to be limited to 48 cars.
Competitor-based auto racing is an approved activity in the State of
Ohio.
Eldora and ASCoC officials will communicate updated event and entry
information to competitors as it is finalized, on
www.EldoraSpeedway.com, the team portal on www.AllStarSprint.com and
via the official Eldora and ASCoC social channels.
Eldora’s “When We Know, You’ll Know” policy for communicating
information about the status of scheduled, postponed, and rescheduled
