The Kool Kidz-Corr / Pak 360 Sprint Car Series is for open-wheel tube frame vehicles that compete on the dirt.
They have a high power-to-weight ratio and are limited to a fuel-injected 360-cu.in. V8 engine.
Strict rules only permit using steel blocks equipped with spec cylinder heads from General Motors, Ford, or Mopar.
Even the intake ports are required to match Fel-Pro's specific gasket dimensions.
The motor produces approximately 700 horsepower. Power from the engine is transferred through an in-or-out gearbox.
As a result, the cars are not equipped with a starter motor and require a push to start.
The chassis rules are simple. They must be a four-post design and cannot use chassis or suspension cockpit adjustable devices. Brakes are limited to steel, aluminum or titanium rotors. Spec Hoosier Tires are mounted on eighteen-inch-wide wheels on the right rear and left rear; wheels must not exceed fifteen inches. After a race, this competitive package must weigh at least 1,500 pounds (with the driver and no fuel). The Kool Kidz-Corr / Pak 360 Sprint Car Series schedule consists of eighteen events at Ohsweken Speedway. The season starts in May and ends in mid-September.
The seventh round of the Kool Kidz-Corr / Pak 360 Sprint Car Series was held during Thunder On The Grand Night One. After the Time Trials, drivers competed in a Heat Race followed by the twenty-five-lap A-Main.

Westbrook moved into the lead after the lap-7 restart for the victory. |

Nick Sheridan is part of a racing family that includes his father, Ron, a former asphalt competitor, and his brother, Jake, who competes in the APC United Late Model Series. Nick joined the 360 Sprint Car division after a successful stint in the Crate Sprint Car class, where he won the 2019 championship. His best result to date was a second, but he never finished outside the top ten. At the July 11 event, Sheridan started the feature in third and finished second. |

The No. 15 Nitro 54 Variety / Policaro Foundation 360 Sprint Car was piloted by Ryan Turner. Turner's performance this year included five top-three finishes and one fifth-place. At the July 11 event, he was victorious in Heat Race 1. Turner was gridded on the pole for the thirty-lap A-Main. He led the opening lap but was passed by Nick Sheridan one circuit later. Then Turner could not hold off a hard-charging Dylan Westbrook and crossed the finish line in third place. |

Last season, Mike Bowman was the driver to beat and captured the 2023 Kool Kidz-Corr / Pak 360 Sprint Car championship. Bowman finished thirteenth in his last outing; however, he is the only driver to beat Dylan Westbrook this year. He started fourth in Heat Race 4 and finished in the runner-up position. In the A-Main, Bowman started on the inside of row three in seventh place. He passed Max Stambaugh and Scott Kreutter for a fourth-place result. |
