The Indoor Auto Racing Series returns to Jim Whelen Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City on Friday, January 26th and Saturday, January 27th 2024.

Tickets for both nights of the NAPA Auto Parts weekend will go on sale to the public on Thursday, September 14th.    Special pre-sale offers will be made available to previous customers leading up to the public on-sale date.

As was the case this past January, the headline TQ Midgets will compete in two complete point paying shows of qualifying and feature events both nights.  Saturday’s main event will feature the 22nd running of the Gambler’s Classic.   On Friday a new event, the BlackJack 21, will be held. 

Anthony Sesley of Matawan, N.J. was the Saturday night winner of the 21st Gamblers Classis this past January, becoming the only four-time winner of the event.  On Friday night, Andy Jankowiak of Totowananda, N.Y. won the 20th annual event that was not held in 2021 to Covid-19 gathering restrictions.   Both drivers are expected to return to the TQ Midget concrete series again this year in hopes of adding to their impressive indoor winning resume. 

“The response from the fans and racers for our double-down TQ Midget feature weekend this year was heard loud and clear,” said Indoor Racing Series promoter Len Sammons. 

“The Gamblers Classic is a special event and there can only be one winner that takes home that coveted Cup each year on Saturday night,” added Sammons.   “However, we are starting a new tradition on Friday night this year with the 1st Annual Blackjack 21 for the TQ Midgets.” 

As in the past, the Slingshots and Champ Karts will continue to be a part of all the Concrete Series events.  Returning to Atlantic City for a second year will be the wingless 600cc Micro Sprints. These three divisions will again qualify on Friday and compete in a feature only on Saturday night.  

Tickets for the event will be available through Ticketmaster and at the Box Office.
