Gulf South Crate Racing Association Schedule is Here!
(February 10th, 2025) - The 2025 Gulf South Crate Racing Association (GSCRA) season is officially underway, with the release of an action-packed schedule set to deliver 13 weekends of thrilling racing across five premier tracks. Presented by Empire Dirtworks & Construction, the series promises to deliver more high-speed action and intense competition as some of the best drivers from Louisiana, Texas, Mississippi, and Arkansas battle for supremacy in the 2025 season.
A major highlight of the 2025 season will be the expanded points fund, with the series champion taking home a $4,000 payday. After a captivating inaugural season, where Rob Litton of Alexandria, LA claimed the first-ever GSCRA title, the competition in 2025 will be fiercer than ever. Litton secured his championship by a 100-point margin over Mark Underwood Jr., who dominated the win column in 2024 with four victories, including two at Super Bee Speedway, one at Boothill Speedway, and one at Sabine Speedway.
Underwood Jr. was one of seven drivers who tasted victory in the inaugural season, joining Mikey Kile, Chase Holland, Corey Neil Jr., David Winslett, Rob Litton, and Sid Scarbrough on the winners' list. Series announcer Steve Cope reflected on the success of 2024, noting the strong participation and regional growth: “2024 was a fantastic year as Rob Litton did an excellent job bringing together crates from Louisiana, Texas, Mississippi, and Arkansas. Instead of just five or six cars at tracks, we saw a great regional turnout. This season is shaping up for another exciting year."
