The 18th Annual “Dick Gaines Memorial,” featuring the Kelsey Chevrolet sprint cars, will be held on August 21st at the Lawrenceburg Speedway in Lawrenceburg, Ind. Saturday night’s race honors the memory of one of Indiana’s greatest sprint car heroes, Dick Gaines, who was inducted into the National Sprint Car Hall of Fame in 1992.

The 25-lap Kelsey Chevrolet Sprint feature will pay $3,000 to win / $300 to start. Also competing will be the KOI Auto Parts UMP Modifieds, Impact Sports Pure Stocks and the Bessler’s U Pull & Save Hornets.

There will also be $100 tow money to all sprint cars that do not start the feature, and a $63 hard charger award for the driver that advances the most positions from the original posted feature lineup.

It's interesting that the purse, At least the Winners share is what the Knoxville Nationals was when Gaines won it.

Anyhow, come race with us. See ya Saturday!

Looking forward to it. The last two regular shows I attended and both times they were great races. Track was really good and wide.

Our racing family will be in the house at the burg. Great racing event. Looking forward to the weekend. Saturday night at the burg and going to have a meet and greet Sunday for the mailman 60th birthday party. And headed out for Kokomo on Wednesday morning for some more great Kodak moments and life time memories. After Knoxville last weekend it just keeps coming. LOL. Have fun and enjoy all the great things that we all love. God bless America. Thanks.
