Wilwood Tough
Brake Award New for USMTS Racers in 2022
CAMARILLO, Calif.
(Feb. 2) —
Wilwood Engineering will support
competitors in the Summit USMTS National Championship
presented by RacinDirt in 2022 as the sponsor of the new
Tough Brake Award.
Following each main event,
USMTS officials will determine which racer is deserving
of the Wilwood Tough Brake Award and will earn a
valuable $100 product certificate. Then, the driver with
the most Wilwood Tough Brake Awards will earn a $1,000
cash award at season’s end.
Wilwood will also add cold, hard
cash to the USMTS points fund for all racers.

2022 season blasts off March
4-5: The Summit USMTS Modifieds will invade the
Rocket Raceway Park in Petty, Texas, on Friday and
Saturday, March 4-5, for the 12th Annual Texas Spring
Nationals.
The fast and wide high-banked
quarter-mile dirt oval, formerly known as 82 Speedway
and East Texas Speedway, opened in 2015 and hosted the
USMTS for the first and only time on June 25. Philip
Houston was the winner that night.
The Texas
Spring Nationals will also welcome USRA Stock Cars for
the first time ever, along with USRA Limited Mods and
USRA Factory Stocks both nights. An open practice for
all divisions is slated for Thursday night, March 3.
The Rocket Raceway Park holds 3,400 spectators and
its elevated grandstands offer superb viewing from any
seat. The venue can be found in Lamar County—about 15
minutes west of Paris and 25 minutes east of Bonham.
The track’s physical location is 16369 US Hwy 82,
Petty, TX 75470. Learn more at
