Sprnts,Mods,600Micro's & Bombers at Vermilion County Oct 2


Non-Wing Sprints will return to the ¼ mile semi-banked dirt oval of the Vermilion County Fairgrounds in Danville Illinois this Saturday night October 2nd. The evening’s events will involve the fans directly and will have a common theme that we need them to come out and “SAVE THE RACE TRACK.” The news has been spreading that the race track with so much history and side by side racing for the last 50 plus years may come to an end after the 2010 season unless the fan support and car counts turn the opinions of the Vermilion County Fairboard to a more positive outlook for 2011. Special thanks goes out to the Vermilion County Fairboard for giving it one more shot to “SAVE THE RACE TRACK” with a great show this Saturday night.

This will be a twilight event that will feature the Non-Wing Sprints paying $1200 to Win and $200 to start the 25 Lap A-Main.
$50 Tow Money is Guaranteed to anyone not starting the feature event.

Good luck with the races, but if Bob Pierce couldn't take that track and make it successful (able to support a good paying purse without losing money)... No one will.

Bob didn't run it, Angie did, and she can give you 5-6 good reasons it didn't work for them. Spiker was making it work until he bailed on it for Putnamville and Bill Nelson made it work when he ran sprint cars. So it can work......will it? We'll see. One thing different, for the first time the fairboard is actually coming out and will be running the beer sales and concession, splitting the profits with us. As I've stated, many people are involved with promoting this.
