Friday July 20th will see a complete TNTSS 10.90 event, from two rounds of qualifying to final eliminations – A warm up for the Nitro Jam weekend.

"We're very excited to be returning in 2012," said Ted Barnes, TNTSS Director.  "It's a terrific opportunity that adds value for the sportsman racers making the trip to Grand Bend."

"We are very happy to have the TNT series returning to the Mopar Nitro Jam event in 2012," said Paul Spriet, Chief of Operation at Grand Bend Motorplex.  "They were a great addition to the 2011 event plus it offers many of their competitors the opportunity to enter the MNN event as well. So it is a win-win for everyone."

This event is open to any racer entered into the Nitro Jam main event and follows IHRA Hot Rod rules with only two exceptions - No weight minimum and left-hand steer open-bodied cars ARE ALLOWED.

In addition to the TNTSS, the Can Am Stock / Super Stock Series will make its Nitro Jam debut, also running a complete race on Friday July 20th.  To find out more about this, contact FJ Smith at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .
