MIDDLE VILLAGE, NY- Although there is much anticipation for the enhancements the 2022 schedule of events will bring, the Fling team will continue to look back on this year with heavy hearts. The racing community collectively mourned a true figurehead of the sport when Kyle Seipel lost his three year battle with cancer in the summer.“The world will never be the same,” said Biondo on the loss of his business partner and best friend. “I spent a lot of time with Kyle in the last few weeks of his life talking about the Fling events and his wishes. He told me to keep the Fling brand going and I promised him I would give it everything I have.”

Racers can expect higher round money and higher payouts at the 2022 Fling events. The Flings will also introduce a new format that will allow racers to double enter, while still maintaining fairness to the single-entered drivers. “Kyle and I were always hesitant on allowing double entries because of the perceived advantage it holds,” Biondo said. “After a lot of thought we came up with a definitive compromise. Racers can double enter any way they choose, but they will be run separately from single entry drivers for the first two rounds of competition each day.” The new format will be debuted in Las Vegas where each racer will be given a car number preceded by an A, B, C or D which will designate the group they will run with for the first two rounds.

Returning to the Fling events is the ever-popular combination of high guaranteed payouts with $60,000 of racer appreciation giveaways to create a better experience and return on entry for bracket racers. “Our sponsors and our Fling Staff are what makes us look good,” said Biondo. “95% of our sponsors have re-signed for 2022 and we have the best staff in the business ready to roll to Vegas in April.”

The Flings have partnered with manufacturers in the industry to upgrade round prizes to $500 cash for several of the best losing package prizes. New affiliates of the Fling will include Laris Motorsports Insurance as “The Official Motorsports Insurance of the Flings” and Advanced Product Design as the “Official Carburetor of the Flings.”

Leading things off will be the K&N Spring Fling Million at The Strip at Las Vegas Motor Speedway on April 12-16, followed by the RAD Torque Spring Fling at GALOT Motorsports Park on April 26-30. The Fling will make its second stop at National Trail Raceway in Columbus for the JEGS Performance Summer Fling on September 6-10, and finally will land at Bristol Dragway for the RAD Torque Fall Fling on September 20-24. As in years past, each of the four Fling events are presented by OPTIMA Batteries.
