POWRi Midgets & Micros Oct 2nd at Belle-Clair
 

October 2, 2015 will mark the 11th Annual Charlene Meents Memorial. Started in 2005 to honor former Midwest Auto Racing Association President, Charlene Meents, this event has proven to be a driver and fan favorite each year. During her years with MARA, Charlene was instrumental in keeping midget racing alive in the Midwest, and especially the St. Louis area. She also played a key role in MARA being part of some of the largest and most notable midget races in the country, including the Belleville Nationals and the Chili Bowl Nationals. Charlene passed away on August 6, 2003 after a long illness. She is remembered by many as the friendly face that welcomed them to each MARA event – this memorial race helps keep that legacy alive.

It's a shame that Powri has ruined the Belleville show by including 2 classes of stock cars for this race.
What true open wheel & midget fan wants to sit and watch that junk.
I have a feeling that Powri will see a decrease in fan base but hopefully for the Meents family an increase in car count over last weekend

There is one division of modifieds. Maybe 20 cars. Two heats and a feature you wont have to watch if you choose not to as it runs last. Skipping midgets at Belleville because of a couple of modified heats doesnt make much sense to me. Kenny and POWRi run the show very quickly. Best midget racing anywhere in my opinion. Meents race is always a great show plus all the extras Stephanie has put together. Just my 2 cents.
