ROCKINGHAM, N.C. (February 5, 2009) – The last few weeks have brought big announcements from the Rockingham Speedway concerning all of the new races scheduled for 2009 at the historic track. Today’s news features the return of a series to the speedway – the Pro Cup Series will race on Saturday October 10th, 2009.
The series formerly known as USAR Pro Cup is now known as USARacing. The race will be 150 laps and will be on the Saturday before the ARCA RE/MAX Series championship race on October 11th, 2009.
Fans attending the USARacing Pro Cup race will also get to see ARCA practice and qualifying the same day.
