At this time we have twenty commited racers. The big news is that Vermilion County Speedway, Danville, Illinois will be our home track. Plans are being worked out for a good 2009 schedule at Danville. They will run open Sprints every Saturday night and may work in something special on Saturdays for the Steel Block group. Other nights will be scheduled for the Steel Block show, possibly Friday, Sunday, or Wednesday dates. Mailers have gone out to 28 tracks and will be followed up with phone calls and personal contacts. As soon as we get some solid contracted dates I will send out sign up profile papers to those on the commitment list. I have talked to a number of modified and stock car racers that want to race this class, but are waiting for more solid information before making the change. Anyone that has a Sprint roller or a Steel Block Sprinter for sale let me know for we are building a market for those items. It looks like 2009 will be a building season and 2010 should be fantastic. Osborn this is another reason for this series.
