Long time midget driver Danny Pens will be coming out of retirement to race at the Grundy county speedway this Saturday night. Danny has multiple midget Championships he will be driving the #21 Laverne Spencer owned car.

The ILLINI Midget Series is excited to welcome an experienced driver like Danny to our series. This season has already produced some of the most talented team's and competitive racing ever and we look forward to welcoming more teams and drivers as the season progresses.

Ummmm. Wow. Theres a name I haven't heard in 20 years! Aging sucks....
On the other hand, if this doesnt motivate the local fans to come out, nothing will.

Mike Larson has his car ready and will be making his first appearance of the season with us at Grundy tomorrow. He has done some work this past winter on making his lighting sprint set up better for pavement racing. Lots of inquiries about lightning sprints have been coming in and with the large inventory of lightning sprints turn key ready for 5k and under this is a great option. There is a few basic modifications needed to convert over to pavement racing.
