A Shreveport, La.-based Dirt Late Model chassis manufacturer operated by the husband-and-wife duo of Ronnie and Terri Stuckey, Black Diamond has a long history of involvement in the Southwest’s mid-winter racing extravaganza that in 2022 features six nights of racing from Jan. 8-16. The Dirt Track Bank Super Late Models presented by Black Diamond Race Cars will contest five $5,000-to-win events and a $25,000-to-win finale, while Modifieds and X-Mods share the nightly spotlight.
“First and foremost, Ronnie and Terri Stuckey are amazing people, which is evidenced as they go above and beyond to support not only our event but racing as a whole each year,� said Wild West Shootout event manager Ben Shelton. “Their relentless work ethic with their championship-winning chassis company is visible in everything that they do, and their support of the Wild West Shootout is no exception. Knowing that they are always just a phone call away is something that our entire staff is extremely grateful for.
“Without their support there’s no way that we would’ve been able to grow the Wild West Shootout into the mega-event that you see today.�
