TCS Logo - flagsTri City Speedway has purchased the Building out front of our facility (Old AMF Bowling Alley). Plans to re-open as a Banquet Center/Bar/Restaurant style renamed KG’s. Tentative date to open for Food/Bar is Mid to the end of August. The Banquet facility to rent will be in 2015. We are excited for the opportunity to give the Race Fans & Teams a place to go for entertainment while coming to the races and after.

The Quarter Midget track is in full swing and close to completion by the end of July. This is going to be a unbelievable facility for the Kids a very special Thanks to the MLSQMRA Quarter Midget Association and their whole staff.

That would be Tri City Speedway in Pontoon Beach, IL. Owners are Kevin & Tammy Gundaker. Kevin is a former late model driver in the St. Louis area. They have done a great job of renovating the former 1/2 mile facility into a 3/8 track for weekly racing. Apparently they are adding a quarter midget track along with purchasing the old bowling alley and renovating it into a banquet center/bar/restaurant. Hope that helps Bob. That's all I got.:)

Bill Gardner explained it
Mud Packer really explained it
Maybe an assumption was made that most people would know where Tri-City Speedway is but I think that is understandable. As Bill explained the rest of the info was in the original article.
Remember Google is readily available to the inquisitive
Come to the Gold Crown to see all the great things the Gundakers are doing for the racers and race fans. More importantly what they are doing for young racers and young race fans. Nothing could be more important to our sport than what they are doing.
Check out their website for lots of info on their great facility: http://www.tricityspeedway.net/
I rarely miss an open wheel event there but I am lucky I live less than a half hour away!

The Gundakers are great people, and what they have done with that track is impressive. Promoters doing what they are doing is the future of the sport. Can't wait to get back there
