Bloomington Speedway Season Opener April 10
 
60 days until the season opener at Bloomington Speedway!!! Are you ready for some awesome action on the red clay Colosseum?!
We have worked through rain, snow, sleet, ice, and mud to continue preparing for the 2020 season

Sprint, Modified, and Super Stock drivers you can contact office@spikerpromotions.com to get registration paperwork emailed to you. Also send a picture of yourself for the driver's card.

So what’s on the card for April 10th? No mention of racing classes on website or FB page.

Thanks

What's the state of the main grandstands; what's the plan?

The last group very much meant well, but kinda messed it up.

Social media pics showed an excavator removing the old concrete stands last week. Have yet to see or hear the new design but would guess something similar to LPS.

I have several photos, but have no idea how to post them.

We would really like to see the pictures, perhaps there is a young teenager around that can help you with posting the pictures. Manage attachments choose file photo library upload I tried that let’s see if the old stands showed up, looks like it didn’t work

I shared a photo from Chris Judah on FB this morning

Stopped by several times,there's work going on daily and weekends,weather permitting of course.
I sure wouldn't want to have 3 tracks to operate with what's going on around us.

Do you know if the plan is to leave the seating like this or do they plan on installing bleachers, the way it is now is good for lawn chairs.

Looks like the grandstand extends all the way to the first turn.

They had forms built and set for one set of steps.At the top and bottom they also had concrete poured 4ft wide and the entire length of the bleachers. Speculation on my part,but I would guess hand rails and steps by next week.As a regular(5 times a year) I am very impressed.Mr Spiker is a solid asset to our community :9:
