KAMP MOTOR SPEEDWAY REOPENING IN 2014
The bank that had the track has excepted the offer from Street Stock driver #II Michael Daugherty.
As of Right now track will run the same divisions as Shadyhill Speedway.
Racing Saturday Night and PAYOUT WILL BE CASH $MONEY$.
Have heard that Michael has already acquired equipment from Georgia.
More announcements in the next few months.
From TJ Larson Facebook Page < Helping Daugherty with the track.

THIS IS NOT A CRUEL JOKE / B.S. EITHER.
Just letting folks know the track has been bought and WILL reopen in 2014.

2024 Season: Race 1 - April 20th Brownstown (Crate LM). Unlike many I don't discriminate on what racing I choose to watch.

Hopefully they sign a USAC or MSCS show. Give me a reason to go and I'll head straight there. I like that place a lot!

A Non-Sanctioned, Open Tire, 410 Non-Wing show or 2 would be great! I like racing at this place!

IMO, running the same classes as a track that isn't too far away, on the same night isn't going to work. That will kill your car count in the lower classes. The mods will be fine because there is enough to go around, but the lower classes will suffer. If you run a class that Indiana super stocks can run, I'll be there.

Maybe the plan is to get cars away from shadyhill. But your right Dustin if they ran indiana street stocks we would be there think alot others would also.

When more is announced I will post it here I.e. website, rules, schedule, ect.. Shadyhill shot them selves in the foot a long time ago. They treat people in the pits like crap and are extremely rude. The hill will lose cars and I know a few already that will be there. As of right now there main classes will be UMP Modifieds, UMP Stock Cars, I-Mods, Pure Streets (V8), 4 Cylinders. Specials TBA.

I would love to see them run late models again, but I wouldn't be surprised if having the money to pay them a reasonable purse is an issue. I would definitely swap out the IMods for Sportsman/Indiana Super Stocks. Shadyhill will always have their loyal regulars, but the reopening of what was known as Kamp Motor Speedway will probably have an impact on them. More of an impact than Plymouth did this year.
