Bloomington, IN- August 23rd, 2009- Coming off of a weekend where a few of our regular competitors strapped on the wings to compete with the O’Reilly Midwest All Stars, they will be looking forward to familiarity. Familiarity in running without the wing, as the Safety Kleen Sprint Cars return to the Bloomington Speedway for a $1,400 to win event. Dickie Gaines, Broc Burton, Jeff Bland, Jr., Ty Deckard, Chris Babcock, Nic Faas, Logan Hupp, and Eric Edwards represented the Bloomington Speedway well last Friday night during the MASS event, with five of them making the main event. A close points battle will also continue in the Tire and Wheel Center UMP Super Stock division, as they will run for $500 to win. The O’Neal Wood Products UMP Modifieds will also be in action for $600 to win. The fine folks from Rose and Walker will be on hand this Friday night for the festivities. If you see one of the Rose and Walker representatives, make sure you stop them and thank them for their support.

I wouldnt count on it. Not many are running the other track when sprints arent running at their home track. I think there were only 2 from Bloomington at GC last week while MASS was at Bloomington. Not too many from GC came to run the KISS or Sheldon Kinser this year.
