Sam Seawright was the overall fast qualifier for the Ice Bowl
One of the South’s more traditional dirt racing events is taking place this weekend at the Talladega Short Track. The 32nd annual Ice Bowl presented by Racecar Engineering feature will take the green flag on Saturday at the Eastaboga, Alabama facility.
Qualifying and heat racing action used to set the bulk of the starting lineup was held on Friday afternoon. Pearson Lee Williams and Sam Seawright earned front row starting positions as a result of their efforts in that preliminary action. J.T. Seawright and Dallas Cooper were also heat race winners and will start the feature from the second row.
Saturday’s non points-paying Valvoline Iron-Man Late Model Series 50-lap main event will pay $7,500 to the winner.
