Sat Oct 2, The Vermilion County Fairgrounds in Danville IL will host an open 410 non wing sprint car program along with modifieds and outlaw 600 winged mini sprints.
This is an open event, inviting all regulars from UMP, IMCA, PowrI, USAC, IRA, ASCT and MSCS series. An invitation is also extended to regulars from LPS, Paragon, Charleston, Farmer City, Lincoln, Fairbury, Peru, Linton, Logansport and Flora to come join us. Everyone is welcome. No entry fee or membership.

We will try to run each weekend thru the month of October .
The Vermilion County Fair board president has granted us this date to give everyone one more chance to see if there is enough interest to keep the race track in operation next season, as they are considering to blade it off to make room for more parking, larger demo derby and tractor pulling area. So we are trying to make the best of it as the date was granted yesterday afternoon.

Chad,
Many of us are involved in getting this first race off the ground. None of the other races are confirmed until we see what the interest is after Sat night.
I have been working on this since mid July and now it's finally going to get to happen.
In order to encourage steel block owners to attend, asct will award points to those who come that are current members....and I'm hoping to award $100 to the highest finishing steel block. Glad to have you next week if you can make it and the stars stay aligned.

Steve and Al Thomas are the point men of a group trying to help racing by adding a month of events at VCS.

Support them this weekend and if you don't like it, end your season and stay home the next week.

Everybody is aware of the ACST problems, this is a Steve Thomas and friends event.

One of those friends is John Gurley as he is promoting it on his website and on 4m.

Steve wants to promote this event at VCS to keep the track open. The fairboard doesn't care if they have a race track or parking lot.
The track is a good track and I have seen many good races there in all classes.
For those support class haters, there will be additional classes cause they help pay the bills too.
Bombers have been added to the Mods, Mini Sprints and Sprint cars.
I think bomber rules are open except for no rollers,

Come spend a day this Saturday and see what happens.
Choices for a weekend are dropping off. Here is an addition.

See you there.

I would hope you will give it a few weeks at least. Many already have plans to go to the Gold Crown or the burg this week. The schedule clears out alot after that and I would consider checking out VCS instead of the SC race at THAT the next saturday.

[Haulerin2deep]

Thanks Steve. If there is any possibility of getting there this Saturday I will do my best. Good luck and I hope it is a huge success.

For those who have asked; coolers are allowed.....bring what you want or get it when you get there. And all of the billboards will be taken down in turn 3 and 4, so we invite the "hilltoppers" back to their favorite spot.
And streaking will be allowed and encouraged Chris when you can make it! Our friends in the Bomber class will be running this week.

Steve if you want fans in the stands, dont invite me to streak, that place will go under faster than Xplex
