This Thursday-Saturday, Feb. 6-8, the Rocket Raceway Park in Petty, Texas will host the Eiffel Tower Classic. The weekend will feature a practice night on Thursday then two full nights of racing on Friday and Saturday that involves two separate shows.

Boasting a purse over $20,000, it’s for sure going to be a big weekend in Paris, Texas

Rocket Raceway Park proudly waves the USRA banner and will be racing USRA Stock Cars, USRA Limited Mods (USRA B-Mods and Sunoco USRA Factory Stocks. Eco Mods will also join both nights and Junior Limiteds will compete on Saturday only.

Director of Operations Kevin Rogers had this to say about the upcoming season opener:

“ I encourage everyone to come out. We have been working on getting things ready and weather is looking great for the weekend. I am looking for a very competitive field of drivers and a great weekend of family entertainment in Petty, Texas”

2024 was a dream season for a few drivers at Rocket who will begin their track title defense this weekend at the high speed oval, including Jesse Freelen (Stealth Oilfield Services USRA Stock Cars), Matthew Riskey (Coston & Son Ready Mix USRA Limited Mods) and Deaon Redmon (Offen Petroleum USRA Factory Stocks).
