Claremont Motorsports Park will welcome racers and fans on Saturday, November 21, 2026, for the Turkey Day Classic, featuring open competition racing across all divisions and a 4/6-Cylinder Enduro to cap off the day.
Following multiple questions from competitors, speedway officials are clarifying the rules for the event. The Turkey Day Classic will feature an open competition format with only a few selected rules in each division. Teams should prepare their cars according to the following requirements.
For Late Models and Outlaw Late Models, only Eight-inch Hoosier F60, F70, A40, or A50 tires are permitted. All built engines must run a Holley 500 two-barrel carburetor, while all crate engines may run a Holley 650 carburetor. This division is open to all Late Models and Outlaw Late Models, but Modifieds are not included.
Super Streets require Hoosier 790 tires only. Built engines must run a Holley 500 carburetor, and crate engines may run a Holley 650 carburetor.
Ridge Runners require a Rochester 2-Jet carburetor and Hoosier 790 tires only. These cars must not have jacking bolts and require an automatic transmission.
Pure Stocks are limited to Pure Stock cars only, and cars that competed as Mini Stocks are not eligible. These cars must not use racing tires.
Six Shooters also require that no racing tires be used.
New England Dwarf Cars must have a maximum engine size of 600cc and must use American Racer dwarf car tires only.
For Crown Vics, the division’s regular tire rule is the only rule in effect: all-season tires only, with a minimum tread wear rating of 350. No tire costing more than $125 is allowed, and approved tire sizes are 235/55/17, 225/60/16, and 225/70/15. High-performance and directional tires are prohibited.
