Wild West Shootout Reserved Ticket Packages Now Available

6-Day Reserved Ticket Package Holders Exclusively Have a Chance to Win Up to $3,000 in the Don Frank Floors Hayday Payday Promotion

VADO, N.M. (Oct. 29, 2024) — Six-day reserved seat packages are now available for purchase for the 19th annual Rio Grande Waste Services Wild West Shootout presented by O’Reilly Auto Parts.

The event is set for Jan. 4, 5, 8, 10, 11, and 12 at FK Rod Ends Vado (N.M.) Speedway Park.

Six-day, reserved seat packages are $155 and guarantee patrons a seat in the top two rows at the state-of-the-art New Mexico oval. The reserved tickets can be purchased by visiting www.wildwestshootout.net or https://www.etix.com/ticket/k/24404416/2025-wild-west-shootout-6day-reserved-seat-package-vado-vado-speedway-park .

Patrons who purchase six-day reserved seat packages will also be exclusively eligible for the brand-new Don Frank Floors Hayday Payday that could see a lucky fan winning as much as $3,000.

The Don Frank Floors Hayday Payday will see a different lucky fan paired with a driver each night in the Dirt Track Bank Super Late Model division presented by Black Diamond Race Cars.

One fan will be randomly drawn exclusively from the six-day reserved ticket package holders each of the six race nights. The fan will get to test their outlaw skills by shooting a toy gun at a spinning wheel. The wheel will be decorated with numbers 1 – 6. The spot the dart lands on will be their lucky starting position for the main event. If the Dirt Track Bank Super Late Model driver who starts in that position wins the feature, both the driver and the fan will each receive $500.

If that night’s feature winner doesn’t come from the selected starting spot, the pot will roll over to the next night. The next night’s randomly selected fan from the six-day reserved ticket package holders will get his or her chance to shoot the gun at the Don Frank Floors Hayday Payday Wheel, selecting another starting spot with $1,000 on the line for both the fan and the driver.

Each night will see a new fan drawn with at least a $500 prize on the line for a driver and a fan. Ultimately, if the first five nights don’t produce a lucky winning combination, the final night of the six-race series could see a $3,000 prize possible for a fan and a driver.

At the bare minimum each lucky fan who is drawn into the contest will receive a Wild West Shootout prize pack.

The 19th running of the Rio Grande Waste Services Wild West Shootout presented by O’Reilly Auto Parts features six complete programs for Super Late Models, Modifieds, and X-Mods on Jan. 4, 5, 8, 10, 11, and 12.

The 2025 miniseries features the newly created Penske Racing Shocks 25-To-25 presented by Schaeffer Oil. Over $34,000 has been added to the Jan. 4 Super Late Model opener to make the Penske 50 presented by Schaeffer Oil a $25,000-to-win / $1,000-to-start program.

Four $10,000-to-win / $600-to-start Super Late Model programs follow before seeing the miniseries draw to a close with the $25,000-to-win / $1,000-to-start Rio Grande Waste Services 50 presented by Shaw Trucking on Sunday, Jan. 12.

In total over $350,000 in prize money will be on the line during the 19th Annual Rio Grande Waste Services Wild West Shootout presented by O’Reilly Auto Parts on Jan. 4 – 12 at FK Rod Ends Vado Speedway Park.

Each night finds the Dirt Track Bank Super Late Models presented by Black Diamond Race Cars, Mesilla Valley Transportation / Border Tire Modifieds presented by Rancho Milagro, and ShockerHitch.com X-Mods presented by Border Tire competing in action.

Additionally, an open practice session is slated for both January 3 and January 7.

Last but not least, each division will compete for a miniseries point’s championship and accompanying point fund.

Full event details can be found at www.WildWestShootout.net.

In 2024, the six-race miniseries saw 181 competitors from across North America competing in at least one event.
