I kinda like the moonlit shining exterior gutter facility.

You might contact bloomington speedway and I'm sure they have a good idea of the number of cars they are expecting in the beginning. There is a lot of buzz about this series. In my opinion I think it is going to blow up in Indiana and il. Everywhere it has started it has done nothing but grow.

Weekly program at Route 45 Raceway will consist of: UMP Pro Late Models, UMP Modifieds, UMP B-Mods, UMP Hornets, and Pure Stocks with a GUARANTEED PURSE.

Specials for: MOWA 410 Wing Sprints, MCSC 410 Non-Wing Sprints, WAR East(Non-Wing Sprints), MARS Late Models, Possibly a few 305 Wing Sprint Shows, and others.

Below is a picture of the tracks new logo.

Yes the weekly sprint car count was low but do you think that pro late models will draw more cars

Tri City Speedway gets 18-26 weekly, every Friday ,approx an hour away. We have had numerous calls from drivers in that area looking for a race track to run on Saturdays as well as 3-5 new to the division within a 70 mile radius. We did a lot of research before making this decision. Another thing to note...a pro late model purse is far less than sprint cars. In actuality it is less than the UMP Modified class. We have to look at what is in our region and nonwing sprints are primarily in Indiana. It is not often you will get 18-20 cars to drive by 2-3 other tracks paying more money to come race. As we have said...there will be 6-8 races for the non wing guys in 2015 as well as a couple of winged shows.

Lincoln Park Speedway (Putnamville) runs every Saturday and Tri-State (Haubstadt) has some Saturday shows.
