The 21st Annual Bellman Shootout is set to take place this week, from September 25-28, bringing exciting action to southwest Michigan. Featuring some of the world’s fastest asphalt snowmobiles, along with motorcycles and Jr. Dragsters, this year’s event promises to deliver the ultimate adrenaline rush for fans and competitors alike.
Brought to you by Bellman Oil, Mag1 Lubricants, and Chevron Lubricants, the Bellman Shootout has become a must-attend event for motorsports enthusiasts. Whether you’re a fan of snowmobiles, motorcycles, or Jr. Dragsters, this year’s competition will not disappoint.
The action kicks off on Friday with two test sessions for competitors. One at 11:00 AM – 5:00 PM, $75 entry and a second session at 6:00 PM – 11:00 PM, $50 entry. The day will also feature a gambler’s race for snowmobiles with a $50 entry fee. Special thanks to Dana Russel for adding an additional $500 to the gambler’s race. Plus, a $100 bonus will be awarded to the racer with the best reaction time. At 6:00 PM, the Parents Jr. Dragster Race will give parents the chance to take the wheel and critique their parents in a fun, role-reversed competition.
