2013 Nitro Jam Schedule includes Canadian Race Date Renewals

Feld Motor Sports has announced it’s 2013 Nitro Jam schedule which includes two new markets and a return to some of the top motorsports facilities in North America including Canada……

Highlighting the 2013 schedule is a return to the Sunshine State with a trip to Bradenton Motorsports Park in the spring and the addition of Memphis International Raceway in Memphis, Tenn., the 20th most populous city in the country, to the Nitro Jam lineup in the fall. The 2013 Nitro Jam schedule will also include stops in Arizona, Texas, Pennsylvania, Alberta, Ontario and Michigan during a season that begins in March and runs through October.

“Over the past three years we have seen Nitro Jam grow from a series struggling to find an identity to one of the most exciting motorsports shows around and that is something we want to continue and grow moving forward,” said IHRA President Aaron Polburn. “We have a very strong schedule for 2013 that includes regular stops at popular locations such as San Antonio and Edmonton and two new markets in Florida and Tennessee that we are excited to add to the schedule.

The Nitro Jam lineup will continue to feature a unique assortment of nitro-powered machines in addition to jets, wheelstanders and many more thrilling motorsports acts unique to each market. Nitro Jam will also retain its “race only” format with two rounds of racing and a different winner crowned each day.

In July the Nitro Jam series shifts to the Canadian portion of the tour with two three-day stops.

Castrol Raceway in Edmonton, Alberta – Nitro Jam’s biggest racing weekend – will host the best racers in western Canada and the U.S. the weekend of July 5-7 and Grand Bend Motorplex in Grand Bend, Ontario will welcome the series the weekend of July 19-21.

In addition to a thrilling professional show, the Summit Racing Equipment Pro-Am Tour presented by AMSOIL and other sportsman racing will be featured at most all Nitro Jam events on the schedule. More details regarding professional and sportsman classes will be announced soon.
