LAS VEGAS – By popular demand, Tuesday’s Night of Fire Super Late Model feature – which originally was scheduled for 40 laps – has been extended to 75 laps in keeping with the tradition of past Nights of Fire at the Bullring. “We’ve received several phone calls and e-mails asking us to keep the tradition of a 75-lap Super Late Model feature for the annual Night of Fire,” said LVMS general manager Chris Powell. “So the fans have spoken. We have changed this year’s race back to its original length.”

NASCAR Nextel Cup Series star and Las Vegas native Kyle Busch will return home to compete in Tuesday’s Super Late Model feature. Busch won several races at the Bullring during his racing career in Late Models, Modifieds and Legends.

The Bullring’s annual Independence Day holiday extravaganza will include short-track stock car racing, fireworks, Monster Trucks, a Jet Car burn, a D1 Grand Prix drifting exhibition, freestyle quad exhibition and a driver autograph session. Reigning Miss Las Vegas, Amanda Kunzi, will sing the National Anthem.

Spectator gates will open at 5 p.m., with qualifying at 5:30 p.m. and racing at 6 p.m. Classes will include Super Late Models, the USAC Ford Focus Midget Series, IMCA Modifieds and Legends Cars. Adult spectator admission is $15, children 6-12 are $5 and kids 5 and under will be admitted free. The Bullring offers $1 hot dogs, $1 beer and $1 soda at every race event.

Fans may purchase tickets in advance by calling the LVMS ticket office at (702) 644-4444 or online at www.LVMS.com.

Tickets to the Stockyard, the Bullring’s popular drive-in section, are sold out.
