(CLEVELAND, OH) Kirkwood Transportation, a name synonymous with many great sim racers has joined the American Sim Racing Series to become the title sponsor of the ASRS Kirkwood Transportation Super Late Model Tour, which will run on Wednesday evenings from March 14th-May 30th as part of the ASRS Home Tracks Series.

The ASRS Kirkwood Transportation Super Late Model Tour is the premier short track racing series on the iRacing service featuring the asphalt super late models at the best short tracks offered by iRacing.

The 2018 schedule kicks off at USA International Speedway  on Wednesday, March 14th.  New for 2018 is a slightly abbreviated race schedule for the Kirkwood Transportation Super Late Model Tour as races at tracks over one-half miles will be shortened to 75 laps.  All tracks under the half-mile length will run 100 lap races except the series return visit to Irwindale Speedway which will run 75 laps.

“Todd (Kirkwood) is a big supporter of sim racing and has alot of money invested in many leagues and drivers, I am proud to be associated with him and Kirkwood Transportation for the 2018 season” stated ASRS President Jim Foose.  “This is going to be a strong season for us and for short track sim racing in general with our continued commitment in our short track program through the ASRS Home Tracks Series and the investment from Kirkwood Transportation”.

Registration is ongoing  for the ASRS Kirkwood Transportation Super Late Model Tour at www.americansimracing.com.

Modeled after the premier super late model series, the ASRS Kirkwood Transportation Super Late Model Tour runs events similar to America’s greatest short track series such as the CRA Super Series and the Pro All Star Series North & South Tours.  The focus of the series is the short tracks that many superstars of the sport cut their teeth on.
