PORT ALLEN, LA- The CP Racing Promotions Bluegrass Spring Warm-up, scheduled for April 5-7, 2024, at London Dragway, underwent adjustments due to weather forecasts, condensing the event from three days to two. Consequently, all on-track activities for Friday were canceled. The payout originally allocated for Friday was redistributed, with half added to Saturday’s payout and the other half to Sunday’s, across all categories. Despite the changes, the event featured two Box $15K races, two $11,250-to-win No Box classes, and a $1,050-to-win category for Junior Dragsters. Additionally, the event included the completion of the $15K Box Shootout, $10K No Box Shootout, and a Jr. Dragster Shootout.
